Kristina King was nominated by a parent of a student, Tracy Harney.
"Kristina King has forever impacted my two children! She goes far above and beyond her call of duty. Kristina instantly adds the children who walk through her door to her family on the day the school year starts! She treats them as her own," said Harney.
"Kristina has been a truly amazing teacher to my children and myself. As a substitute teacher in my children's school, Kristina has gone above and beyond to support me in returning to college. Her words of encouragement and willingness to help with public assignments are more than I could ever thank her for. I just finished my bachelor's degree, and she's already encouraging me to continue to my master's. Kristina is willing to help with anything I need. She truly is an angel sent from above in today's world. She's by far my daughter's favorite teacher," said Harney.
