On Thursday, May 7, radio station STAR 101.5 surprised our own 5th Grade teacher, Ms. Kristy Heline, and presented her with the STAR 101.5 Elementary Teacher of the Week award. Kristy was nominated by her student, Sarah Harlow. STAR 101.5 & Lifestyle & Entertainment Reporter, Scott Carty, made a surprise visit to her classroom.
Each student received a goody bag full of prizes from McDonald’s, Dairy Farmers of Washington, KOMO 4, and STAR 101.5! Ms. Heline received a personalized plaque from Trophies2Go and a $100 check. Plus, Ms. Heline received a certificate for a makeover courtesy of Blanc N’ Schwartz Salon in Kent.
STAR 101.5’s “Elementary Teacher of the Week” is a program that allows students to recognize local, deserving teachers for their commitment to the quality education of children. GREAT job, 5th Grade and Ms. Heline. Well deserved!
