The 2008 Outstanding Educator Award was presented to math teacher Erin Millard for her extraordinary efforts in teaching, motivating and inspiring her students to learn. Mrs. Millard, a Kapa`a High School graduate herself (class of 2000), was nominated by student Kula Brede in an essay contest that went on to earn Kula a $200 prize. Kula, who was a student in Mrs. Millard’s class, described Mrs. Millard as a “friend, a shoulder to lean on, a role model and most of all a giver.” For her excellence in teaching, Mrs. Millard was awarded $1,000.
Congratulations Mrs. Millard and thank you for helping to shape and prepare our youth for the challenges of tomorrow.
