Luann Lee is "Educator of the Week"

Luann Lee is a Science Teacher at Newberg High School's, Silver School.  She is also a Nationally Board Certified Teacher in Science with a Doctorate in Science Education.  Her nominator, Melody McMaster, is a parent and this is what she has to say about Luann:

Luann Lee is more than just a teacher. She has been described as a "second mom". She is a dedicated chemistry teacher who makes herself available to her students at all times. Luann is willing to have study sessions before and after school. She even had study sessions available to students during Spring Break. My son Spencer, says he can’t think of another teacher who works harder to have her students be successful than Mrs. Lee. Not only does she care about her student’s being academically successful, she is willing to look after their well-being too. Spencer says she will never give up on a student. If a student does not bring paper to work with, she will supply them with some. If they do not have a writing utensil, she will make sure you get one. She will sit down with you during the time that she is not required to and make sure that you understand what you need to for you to exceed in her class along with others as well. If someone doesn't have time to eat breakfast or there is no food in their house, Mrs. Lee always has a snack for them whether they are a student in her class or not. Mrs. Lee is truly a devoted teacher and she deserves to be the K103 Educator of the Week.
