Every month, the Reeds Spring School District recognizes one exceptional teacher with an Excellence Award. January’s deserving winner is Mrs. Ashley Kohl. She is a fourth-grade teacher at Reeds Spring Elementary School.
“She is a world-class educator and deserves to be recognized for her hard work and dedication over the years,” said Literacy Specialist Alisha Cavinder. “Many of her former students come back to visit her and also request to work in her room as an A+ tutor.”
Mrs. Kohl has worked at Reeds Spring Schools for 17 years. She is known to support her students by attending extracurricular activities on the weekends and she saves letters that students have written to themselves in the fourth grade that she returns to them when they graduate from high school.
“Thanks to her kindness and caring heart she continues to make a positive impact in the lives of those around her. It is easy to see why she is deserving of this Excellence Award,” Cavinder said.
The district accepts Excellence Award nominations from students, staff, parents, and community members. You can find the nomination form on the district website.
Mrs. Kohl also received the Golden Apple Award from FOX 49 News!
