Congratulations to Ms. Rachel Thomsen, an English, language arts and drama teacher at South Fremont Junior High in Anthony, ID, who was awarded a $250 New Classroom Start-Up Grant by Brenda Miller, NWPE regional director, to purchase classic novels for her eighth grade students. Ms. Thomsen believes in raising the bar and challenging her students to think beyond popular or easy literature. She will use the books currently available as a starting point and do her utmost to create projects and assignments to close the gap between what is currently available and end the year with more challenging literature that will benefit her students’ ability to think and write critically.

Congratulations to Ms. Sara Klure, a second grade teacher at Rolling Hills Public Charter School in Boise, ID. She has been awarded a $250 New Classroom Start-Up Grant to purchase classroom novel sets that would allow each student to have their own copy during novel units and more books for the class’ independent reading library. NWPE Regional Director Brenda Miller awarded the grant a staff meeting. New to NWPE, Sara chose NWPE after having not been part of a professional organization for about 6 years. “I was unhappy with my past organization because there were a lot of secret meetings and political agendas. I appreciate that NWPE keeps their messages focused on ways to keep teaching professional and that they do not affiliate themselves with political agendas.”
