Summit family, please join me in celebrating Ms. Zelma Atkins as our first Educator of the Week for the 2021-2022 school year. This is Ms. Atkins' first year as a Math Teacher. Ms. Atkins' colleagues say she came in as a first-year math teacher and was rocking it!!! WE ALL LEARNED! Another coworker said Ms. Atkins had brought her A-Game every day this week. She has used me greatly this week, trying to help her with lessons since the home campuses haven't sent work. Another says I want to nominate Ms. Atkins because she hit the floor running. She has been innovative and engaged with each student, building on their strengths while determining their .weaknesses. She exhibits a positive attitude and is a bright light on our campus!!! Go, Ms. Atkins!!!!! And yet another colleague said she is dedicated to her work and the students.
