Jennie Tueller has found so many ways to help her first graders work together. She fosters feelings of kindness and unity. Every student to have a good friend at school! She asks the parents to encourage their children to reach out to others. Teach them academics but also teach them to encourage others and share. That is how they will change the world. She said, "I hope my students know that I will always care about them and that I love to see what they are doing in their lives and where life takes them. I’m so very grateful for a job that continues to challenge me and requires me to continue to learn. I’m grateful that I feel needed and that my hard work makes a difference! I’m SO grateful for the JOY it brings into my life!"
