McNabb's Morris is Teacher of the Month
Our ears are still ringing from last week’s assembly at McNabb Elementary in Paducah. Representatives from WestKentuckyStar.com and Scott Walker Construction were there to award Emily Morris, 5th grade teacher, Teacher of the Month for March.Mrs. Morris wasn’t always a 5th grade teacher. She taught kindergarten in Caldwell County for 15 years! Now she is in her 4th year at McNabb and says she plans to keep teaching!
When asked how she wants her students to remember her: “I want them to know that once they’re mine, they’re always mine! Whether they are a kindergartener I had 19 years ago or a 5th grader I have today…I’m always rooting for them and in their corner, no matter what!”
Outside of teaching, Mrs. Morris enjoys martial arts and leads praise and worship along with the women’s group at her church. Congratulations Mrs. Morris!
West Kentucky Star Teacher of the Month, sponsored by Scott Walker Construction, is awarded each month of the school year. As the March winner, Mrs. Morris will join other 2024-2025 awardees for West Kentucky Star Teacher of the Year 2024 – 2025. Each teacher’s school receives a yard sign to show that a “Teacher of the Month Works Here.” It’s a great addition to the school entrances and a way schools can show off their winning teacher! Also, thanks to our sponsor, all monthly winners receive $75!
