Congratulations Mrs. Frisella from Loves Park Elementary School in Loves Park, Illinois

Erin Cannell nominated Mrs. Frisella, she writes,

My son Logan’s teacher is amazing! When we first met his teacher at meet the teacher I told her that he knows no stranger and he piped up and said I talk to everyone! She learned quickly that he in fact knows no stranger everyone is his friend! She’s very patient and understanding of her students and what they need to succeed in her class. She makes all her students feel very special and they are important to her!

After his experience in 2nd grade, she is a breath of fresh air to my son and our family! When he’s having an off day she sends a message letting us know and then ends it with I know tomorrow will be a better day! She’s so positive with all the kids and it shows how much she means to them with the way my son comes home and is excited about what they did! She deserves all the goods coming her way because I’m not sure I could do her job and make sure an impact on kids like she does!
