CONGRATULATIONS to Calla Kinghorn

Mrs. Kinghorn, from Cascade View Elementary School, wins November Teacher of the Month!

November 17, 2011

Snoqualmie Valley-Issaquah Macaroni Kid, The Cascade Team, The Woodman Lodge, Therapeutic Health of North Bend and Issaquah Trophy & Awards would like to congratulate Mrs. Calla Kinghorn from Cascade View Elementary School for being named Teacher of the Month for November 2011.

One of Mrs. Kinghorn's students nominated her, and had this to say:

My son, Brady, had Mrs. Kinghorn as a Kindergartner. She was amazing in so many ways. Aside from being patient, kind and so linear with the kids (much needed in K) she made sure that each kid felt so special.  Last year when Brady was in 1st grade, he had a hard time adjusting. He didn't want to go to school.  Upon asking for advice, she suggested he come in and help her during her prep time in the mornings. He was so excited to go each time and felt connected and important.  I know how valuable that prep time is. To take that extra time for him and to make him feel needed for the new Kindergartners was amazing. She went above and beyond. I know that parents adore her each year as does her current class. I am just still so thankful for the teacher that she is. She made such a difference for Brady and he is a happier, brighter and more confident child because of her! Brady sees her in the halls from time to time and he is always welcomed with a smile and a big hug.  Calla Kinghorn is the kind of teacher you want each of your children to have!

Mrs. Kinghorn teaches Kindergarten at Cascade View Elementary School in the Snoqualmie Valley School District.  Please join us in congratulating this amazing teacher!
