Sheila McComas was nominated by her colleague, Kimberley Nixon.
Ms. McComas has been a special education teacher for over 44 years. She is dedicated to her school and students. She organizes a field trip to Morgan's Wonderland each year (for the past 13 years!) for any special education teacher and their students who want to attend. This includes fundraising so families do not have to pay for the park, transportation, or lodging while they are there. She secured donations for the Special Education students from within the community, including fencing for the playground to keep the students safer. She mentors new teachers and is constantly striving to learn new skills herself.
