Congratulations Steve Bergler from Roscoe Middle School in Roscoe, Illinois

Maximus Rappuhn nominated Mr. Bergler, he writes,

He's the best teacher in the galaxy! Not only is he a great science teacher, but he's also our Science Olympiad coach. He lets us use power tools, like a band saw. He also brings us snacks. He was cool when I super glued my fingers together last week, didn't get upset at all. This weekend we competed and won a bunch of medals.

In Sci Oly, he's the leader of our empire, and we call him Herr Burger, hahaha. He helps us build rockets and stuff that can fly, like a mini helicopter. Yeah. He's awesome. You should pick him for Teacher of the Week, because he deserves a cake.

Listen to my conversation with the empire of Sci Oly's leader, Mr. Bergler (AKA Herr Burger).
