Vicky Wheeler (Bonner Springs Elementary School teacher in ) says...

“In kindergarten I had the most beautiful teacher that smelled wonderful with a big smile. I knew then I wanted to be a teacher. As a side note, the next day, she told me if I continued to color my chickens purple, I wouldn’t pass kindergarten — but we worked it out.”

“I remember my first-grade teacher, Mrs. Brown, in her checkered dress and cat-eyed glasses. She was such a wonderful teacher and obviously made me enjoy the wonderful world of learning, or, rather, learning of the wonderful world.”
