Congratulations to NWPE member Emily Lockhart, 7th-8th grade math teacher at Pocatello Community Charter School. Ms. Lockhart, a two year member of NWPE, received a $500 grant to purchase math games and materials to increase the mathematical fluency of her students. It is this type of support that Ms. Lockhart appreciates about NWPE. “I chose to become an NWPE member because I like the resources available. It makes me feel safer in my job to know that I have legal support if need be. I also like having a voice in educational topics in the political sphere. I was happy to hear that NWPE was an option. The local union has not always been supportive of charter schools and I’m not sure that their decisions are always in my best interest. I’m proud to work at a charter school where families can choose to expose their children to different ways of learning and I think that this choice enhances the Pocatello Community.”

Congratulations to Ms. Rebecca Stucki, NWPE member and first grade teacher at Iowa Elementary in Nampa, ID, on her $500 NWPE Classroom Grant. Ms. Stucki notes that what excites her most about NWPE membership is the affordability of liability coverage and the additional supports that NWPE offers should she need it. She also likes being part of a professional organization which respects her individuality. “I appreciate the opportunity to be part of a process without having to adopt any one collective group's ideas.”
