Queensbury, NY, April 23, 2018 — Each week during the school year, TCT Federal Credit Union salutes local educators and school employees for their outstanding efforts during the year. For the week of April 23, 2018, the Teacher of the Week Award was presented to Kindergarten Teacher at the Queensbury Elementary School, Mrs. Jeanine Reppenhagen.

“Mrs. Reppenhagen is terrific in caring for her students and communication with their parents. Recently she helped one of her students who was having a difficult time transitioning back from spring break. Mrs. Reppenhagen met the student in the lobby and walked him down to class…and she sent several messages to the parents that day in regard to how their child was adjusting. Those extra efforts by Mrs. Jeanine Reppenhagen at Queensbury Elementary School are so appreciated.”

The Teacher of the Week is nominated by a fellow school community member who wants to acknowledge their dedication to students and enthusiasm for learning. All school employees including teachers, aides, assistants, administration staff, janitors, nurses, bus drivers, and more are eligible to receive the award. To nominate a special school employee, email teacher@adirondackbroadcasting.com. View past Teachers of the Week at www.tctfcu.org.

The award includes gift certificates to local businesses, a commemorative plaque, flowers and gift bag. Teacher of the Week is sponsored by TCT Federal Credit Union and Adirondack Broadcasting.
