Ivette
Ivette has been a 1st grade teacher at a Title 1 school for the last 20 years. She never gives up on her kids and always keeps believing that she can do more and does. She spends her extra time and money trying to make her classroom a welcoming and nurturing place to learn. As a single mother of two, I feel that a mental health day to regroup and enjoy herself is more than well deserved.
