Pack The Backpack: Ms Unkrich

MARCH RECIPIENT:

Janelle Unkrich – 1st Grade Teacher – South Tama Elementary School

 

NOMINATED BY:

Carley Bolhuis (Student’s Parent & Co-Worker)

 

CARLEY’S LETTER:

 

Ms. Unkrich deserves pack the backpack as she is the most kind hearted, loving teacher I have not only worked with but have seen also from a parent perspective. Janelle goes above and beyond for all her students and would give the shirt of her back or give up her lunch for anyone she came across that needed help! Janelle spends countless hours finding new ways to help her students in the classroom to help make sure they become successful. If anyone deserves this it would be her as she never asks for anything in return for her hard work and dedication that she puts in for her students.

In Theaters this weekend: ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’

Avatar: Fire and Ash picks up after The Way of Water and dives into darker territory, introducing a more aggressive Na’vi tribe tied to fire and volcanic regions. It cranks up the conflict, explores moral gray areas, and shows Pandora is a lot less peaceful than we thought.
