Golden Apple Award Recipient

Mr. Rowley

We are thrilled to announce Shane Rowley as Lakeview's Golden Apple Award recipient this year!!  Check out the wonderful things parents and students say about Mr. Rowley:

"He is nice.  He is very funny.  He always says something nice."
                                                                                       -a student

"Mr. Rowley is sweet and fun.  I like him a lot and I hope I get to see him a lot, that's why I want him to win."
                                                                                       -a student

"...We requested Mr. Rowley because we knew  he cared for each child in his class on a very personal level.  We have not been disappointed!  He loves our child and nurtures her as his own.  He has helped her regain self-confidence... He is super fun and we always  hear how much our child loves him!"

"...He also has taken his personal time to come and support both of my sons in their different sports activities.  In my book, that makes him the BEST teacher ever!"
                                                                                       -a parent

Crystal Apple Award Recipient

Miss Curtis

We are so pleased to be able to announce Amber Curtis as Lakeview’s Crystal Apple Award recipient this year!  Amber has worked not only as a 6^th grade teacher for the past few years but she also taught 3^rd grade, multiple grades in the after-school program, and has bravely been Lakeview’s track coach.  Those of us who have had the opportunity to work with Miss Curtis know what a committed and wonderful teacher she is.

Miss Curtis is dedicated to the teaching profession.  As if teaching a class full of 6^th graders wasn’t enough, she simultaneously worked not only on her ESL Endorsement but her Masters Degree as well!  Although inundated with additional assignments, papers, and projects, she always manages to have a great attitude and energy to spare!

Miss Curtis' students know that they are important to her.  If you’re looking for this teacher during lunch or after school, just follow the line of students.  She can always be found offering extra assistance to those who need it and works tirelessly to help her students succeed. 

Miss Curtis' dedication to her profession, positive attitude, and commitment to her students make her the perfect recipient for the Crystal Apple Award.  Congratulations Miss Curtis!

Michael Padeken

“...A good role model is somebody you can look to that they are just the way they are but they invite you to be somebody you didn’t ever think you could be.  I struggled in elementary school.  I qualified for Special Ed.  School was pretty much a struggle from grade school all the way up until my last two years in high school.  Mr. Rowley was my 6^th grade teacher.  I felt like a person in his class, like somebody.  From that point on it pretty much made the difference for me staying in school, sticking it out and even helping me decide to become a teacher.”

Michael, a teacher who once struggled as a young student, is now a role model for his own class of 4^th grade students.
