This past semester, Reanna completed her student teaching in an Ag Mechanics/Construction class at Eighth Street Middle School. She did an amazing job building relationships with students, creating engaging hands-on learning experiences, and stepping confidently into her role as an educator. Her students played an important part in helping shape her journey as a teacher, and the positive impact she made on them was clear each day she was in the classroom.
We are so proud of the hard work, leadership, professionalism, and dedication she has shown throughout her student teaching experience. Your ESMS family is incredibly proud of you, Reanna, and we cannot wait to see all you accomplish in the future! 💙
