Larrian Kendricks nominated Kerri Hall for Staff Member of the Month for November. Here is what she had to say about Kerri.
Kerri Hall is more than a teacher. She is a helping hand to all students, no matter if they are enrolled in her classes or not. She is a resource for new teachers to help guide them as they embark on their journey as district educators. Kerri Hall is the type of teacher I strive to be someday. Her lessons and lectures go further than just learning a language. She helps students understand different cultures and form strategies to avoid ethnocentrism and become global citizens. Whether it's taking notes at PD for a shared staff or having a place where students can come and borrow lotion or get advice, Kerri is a model teacher, co-worker, and mentor.
Congrats Mrs. Hall!
