Ms. English practices what she preaches. She is honest with students and sets clear expectations but always makes sure every student knows how much she cares about them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Mr. D\u2019Ablemont, principal at the Manning school, <strong>\u201cCountless children have benefited\u00a0from Ms. English\u2019s expertise and caring, and we are so glad it is being recognized!\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. English is also the go-to person for everyone in the school. If students have questions or need someone to talk to, Ms. English is the first person they look for. Students know that Ms. English will do anything in her power to make their school day better, whether they&#8217;re in the classroom or out at recess.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. English is out at recess <em>every day<\/em>. She plays, supervises, and helps make transitions between recess and class-time as safe and efficient as possible.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recently, Ms. English and Playworks Coach Alec taught students how to play \u2018Slide,\u2019 and it has spread through the school! According to Coach Alec, <strong>\u201cNow anytime a student in 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade sees us, they&#8217;re begging us to play a round, so they can show how much they&#8217;ve been practicing.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without dedicated school staff members like Ms. English, Playworks cannot create a safe, inclusive, and fun school environment for every student.
