CONGRATULATIONS to our Union MS Teacher of the Year, Jessica Clark!
In reviewing parent and student feedback and reflecting on her work in the classroom, Ms. Clark stands out for the consistency and depth of the impact she has on students. Across multiple student responses, a clear theme emerges: students don’t just enjoy her class — they genuinely trust her.
Students consistently describe Ms. Clark as patient, caring, and kind, especially when they need extra help. She creates a classroom environment that feels safe and motivating, where students feel confident asking questions and taking academic risks. This balance of strong instruction and emotional safety is not accidental; it is the result of intentional, skillful teaching. Students report feeling motivated to learn because they know Ms. Clark believes in Ms. Clark believes in them and supports their success. She is truly deserving of this recognition and will represent all of the AMAZING teacher s at Union MS in the District Teacher of the Year Ceremony on April 21, 2026.
