Who is Shannon? She teaches English, Drama, Washington History. But what else do we know?
What I most love about having Shannon as my core teacher is the positivity she spreads around the school to her students and to coworkers. I couldn’t not imagine having Shannon as a teacher: she lifts my mood up if I’m having a bad day, and is a teacher I can talk to and trust with all my heart. I can tell that Shannon genuinely cares about each and every one of her students and wants them to exceed in everything they do and help them to the road to success, no matter how long or winding that road may be. On behalf of the staff at Henderson Pawz, welcome to Henderson Bay Shannon!
