Growing up I think we all must have had a favorite teacher of ours. That one teacher who inspired us the most and taught us to not limit our potential and reach our goals.
I remember my favorite teacher. Her name was Mrs. Krnac, my 5th-grade teacher from Willow Elementary School in Cleveland, Ohio. I attribute her to teaching me that nothing was impossible and that a dream could come true if you work hard enough at it.
Thinking about teachers from the past, and those who are teaching today, Tom wanted to do a giveaway that honors them for the sacrifices, dedication, and devotion they gave us and the students that are being taught today.
