Welcome to The List,
Cody Johnson’s big house on his ranch is being remodeled. So for Christmas his plans this year have changed a bit. “Right now we’re remodeling everything, so now we’re living in a trailer house. So, this year, while waiting for our home to be finished, I’m going to take them on vacation and we’re going to go someplace in the snow…which may wind up being a new tradition. In Texas, we don’t have white Christmases, and if you do, you’re generally outside repairing and wrapping pipes.”

This weeks winner is Stella Anderson - 3rd Grade Teacher at Davis Elementary School in Grinnell
Ms. Anderson deserves this because she consistently goes above and beyond for all of her students. Ms. Anderson has been teaching for a very long time and does not let that slow her down or change her attitude. In fact, she was my 2nd grade teacher (24 years ago), my sons 3rd grade teacher (4 years ago) and now she is currently my daughter’s 3rd grade teacher. In Grinnell, K-2nd grade is at a different school than 3rd-4th grade. Our daughter is the baby of our family. She also recently needed an EIP. So, her switching schools and going from a teacher we LOVED, made us very nervous. But once we found out that Ms. Anderson would be Addisons teacher, all our worries were gone. She is WONDERFUL when it comes to her students. She always makes sure they are okay at school and outside of school. She cares about their feelings and how their day is going. She personally has called me to make sure of after school plans for our kids. She just overall CARES about her students. I wouldn't want my children to have had a different 3rd grade teacher!
