One of my Son's past teachers gets Simi Teacher of the Year...

Simi Teacher of the Year to be feted at dinner.

"Laurie Cariker tries to live by the same philosophy she gives to her three daughters.

The third-grade teacher, who will be honored this week as Teacher of the Year by the Simi Valley Education Foundation, passes on the same advice to her students at Madera Elementary School. …"

Very cool! My son had her twice, both for Third and Fifth grades Second grade … She was/is one of my son’s favorite teachers.

My son is currently an A/B GATE student in middle school (sixth grade), which I believe shows Mrs Cariker did a pretty darn good job…. (That and that my son is d’ man!  ;)
