Congratulations Mrs. Gates on your well deserved recognition by Big Frog 104! "Mrs. Gates teaches first grade in Waterville. "She has helped students grow and learn with unconditional love and enthusiasm through the entire year. She has made things run and exciting while meeting the needs of all learners. Her care, compassion, and positivity has not surprisingly poured over to her students, molding them into ‘star citizens.’ Communication with families was second to none and last minute switch to virtual days didn’t slow her down at all."
