I feel very fortunate to learn and work with Madaline Chilcutt. She definitely played a role in changing my life as an educator, which I will always be grateful for. If it wasn’t for Madaline and a couple of others I wouldn’t be the teacher I am. I have had the privilege of working with her for the past 10 years and seen her impact the lives of so many from students to colleagues, friends, and family.
Mrs. Chilcutt creates a structured academic, fun, positive learning environment for her students.

I have seen her change the life’s of her students for the better and help to make our school the best it can be! She is definitely very deserving of this award!
I love Mrs. Chilcutt! She is my neighbor and friend. She is always smiling and helpful and kind. I’m glad to see her recognized for her wise, educated, kind and caring work with students.
Ms. Chilcutt is an awesome teacher and I have seen her make a difference in the lives of her students and co-workers. She is compassionate about teaching and keeping her students engaged with learning. She integrates technology into her teaching practices and works hard to earn technology through grants. She shares her ideas openly with other teachers and continually reflects on her teaching and how to improve her practice. She is a giving and caring teacher. She loves her students and does everything she can to help them improve and be successful in their learning.
Madaline exemplifies great teaching. She is especially skilled at teaching her students how to have structured academic discussions. To spend time in her classroom is like watching a master class.
Madaline is not only a superior teacher academically, she is a kind, caring, and amazingly fun teacher! She is always the first one to recognize a need that her students may have and she is immediately searching for a solution. She actively participates in all assemblies and runs and dances during our jog a thon which is so fun for the kids to see their teacher in a different dynamic. Her positive attitude is contagious. There is no way to measure the impact she has had on all of the students that have been fortunate to come across her in all her years of teaching, but this award would be a well deserved acknowledgement of that. Madaline Chilcutt is a "life-changer".
Mrs. Chilcutt is not only an amazing teacher, she is a supportive colleague. She continually seeks to implement new and better teaching methods and inspires others do the same.
Madeline is an amazing teacher and is someone that I look up to. There's no question that she is very deserving of this award.
