Our fourth winner for the Holiday Edition of Pack the Backpack is 1st grade teacher at Rogers Elementary in Marshalltown, Jodi Kolbe. She was nominated by school secretary, Mary Verdugo. Here is the nomination letter:
Hi guys, My name is Mary Verdugo. I am the school secretary at Rogers Elementary, I could give you a list of most of our teachers that go beyond to have what we need for our kids and that make their room a wonderful environment for our students, but today I will give you a name – Jodi Kolbe. Jodi has had a hard summer losing a loved one and still being there for her students — or her kids as she calls them. She is awesome and she has purchased, like many of our teachers, many things out of her pocket to have things that her students need. So I nominate her for the pack the backpack.
Listen below to my interview with Jodi.
