Congratulations to
National Teaching Award Nominee
Rachel Lis
Roosevelt 65, Buffalo, New York
Student Nomination Story
Bella's teacher has changed her life simply because after the first week of her being in her classroom she came home and told me "mom, I love Mrs. Lis. She's the best teacher I've ever had. I am so thankful for her." Mrs. Lis has believed in Bella since day one. She is very patient with Bella. She tells her that the sky is the limit and don't ever be afraid to go after what you want in life. She reminds me of myself. I enjoy communicating with Mrs. Lis simply because she's understanding. She's a mother just like me. She's honest and caring. I've never met someone as genuine as her.
