Student Nomination Story
Hey Ms. Vital, this is Javeion, your former S.T.E.M student. While you read my teacher appreciation letter. I want you to know that you made an impact on my during school. Before you ended up being my teacher, my regular classes were kind of boring and there wasn’t a very good reason why I should got to class. During my 7th grade year when you became my teacher, I didn’t know what to expect, but I always had a positive mindset. You're a special teacher to me because you made a great impact during my time in middle school. She helped support me in my goals when I had hard times in class and didn’t know what was going on. Yes, there were a lot of things that she said that really stuck with me while I was in your class. We all had great moments while learning. I am grateful for Ms. Vital as my teacher because of the great learning experience that she made happen within her class. The way I feel about school is I actually love it because of the teachers I have that remind me of the fun times I had in Ms. Vital's class. My dreams for my future have changed to pursue what I feel comfortable with. Lastly, her class was one of the best classes. I would look forward to going to because she made the experience of middle school a once in a lifetime experience. That is why I appreciate Ms. Vital as a teacher.
