Teacher of the Week - Barbara Hopkins
On April 4, we honored another Great American Teacher of the Week winner. Barbara Hopkins, a second grade teacher at North Fairfield Elementary, was nominated by Debbie Asher whose granddaughter, Danielle, is in her class.



Asher had this to say in her nomination:
Mrs. Hopkins made no child left behind a reality for my granddaughter, providing her with special academic assistance to help her succeed. She is warm hearted, caring and goes all out for each of her students. I couldn't possibly thank her enough. She has helped Danielle build a foundation for learning that will help her throughout her life.

Mrs. Hopkins was surprised by our classroom visit. "I love seeing the smile on the children's faces and the sparkle in their eyes when they learn something new," she said. "I'm so lucky to have all of these wonderful students in my classroom."

Congratulations Mrs. Hopkins!
