GMS Students Nominate Teacher for Read to Achieve Contest

Grandview Middle School teacher Hannah Davis wins The Read to Achieve contest, sponsored by the Missouri NEA and Kansas NEA.  

Missouri NEA President Charles E.Smith and KCTV5 News Anchor, Alexis Del Cid will be visiting Davis' classroom on January 13, 2016 at 10:45 am to present the teacher with a $1000 check.  Ms. Davis was nominated by six of her students.  Each described Ms. Davis as an inspiring teacher dedicated to reading and student success.

"She gives her life to teaching her crazy eighth grade science classes.   She just beat the long battle of breast cancer and she continued to teach and coach on those very hard days," said student Kylie Hicks, GMS 8th grader.

Eight lucky teachers in the greater Kansas City area will win during the 2015-2016 school year.
