Student Nomination Story

Mr. Seipkes was my 5th grade teacher. I am now a freshman in high school. I go to northwest which is a magnet cta high school. I truly believe I would not be here without him. When I was graduating 5th grade we had a parent teacher conference, which there he said that I was exceeding and that I would do very well in a magnet middle school. That is where it all started, I had to apply and luckily enough I got in. I would have never have aimed higher if it was not for him. He was my first male teacher and he will probably forever be my favorite. He made me and my class laugh, he made me feel special and worthy of much much more. He made learning fun and never drained us out with work after work. I will forever appreciate him and the memories our class made together.
