(From Joplin Schools)We are SO EXCITED to announce this year's Fred Laas Teacher of the Year winner: Tarryn Gilbert!
Tarryn teaches science at Joplin High School where she's been a dedicated educator since 2017. With nearly 20 years of teaching experience (she came to us with plenty of teaching time under her belt), Tarryn truly exemplifies the best of the best in Joplin Schools: she is highly skilled in her profession, deeply committed to student success, a team-based collaborator, and a daily expert at building intentional relationships with her students.
Here's what some of Tarryn's nominators had to say about her:
-Mrs. Gilbert is a selfless teacher and fantastic employee. She spends countless hours designing lessons to engage and challenge her students. Whenever I need her help, I know she will give me her best and it will be superb work. She is driven by how much she cares for her students and our school.
-She is a wonderful and fun teacher!
-Mrs. Gilbert is a phenomenal teacher! She’s attentive to her students, doing the best she can to assist them, and even going out of her way to do meaningful acts for them. She makes sure nobody goes unnoticed. Mrs. Gilbert is also always finding new things for her students to do, improving their learning experience.
-She does everything for everyone. Great teacher, department head, Level Up coordinator and scheduler.
-She's spent truckloads of hours to make JHS great.
This award is sponsored by the Joplin Schools Foundation, who will further celebrate Tarryn at a Board of Education meeting later this year. Thank you for helping us honor educator excellence!
