Mrs. Anne Houk: Mrs. Houk, we cannot thank you enough for helping TJ transition to a new school and a new classroom. The impact that you have had on his social emotional needs, academic performance, and self-confidence is immeasurable. As a parent, sending your child to school can be a nerve-wracking experience. However, you were a support for our family every step of the way, easing our nerves and answering our questions. Thank you for being available, for going above and beyond our expectations, and for your guidance and support. Our year with you may be ending, your career may be coming to a close soon, but we hope you never underestimate the positive impact you have made in our lives. TJ Lukacsy

Mrs. Dawn Carby: Mrs. Carby is absolutely fantastic. My kiddo really struggled with school last year and went into first grade not even knowing all of her letters. We are now almost to the end of first grade and she can read me books, do math, and knows not only all of her letters but all of her sight words up to third grade! Mrs. Carby had made her love school and learning. We are so thankful for such an amazing teacher! Angela Zmia

Staff at Ottawa HS: I wouldn’t be the teacher I am without the relationships I have with all the people I work with. The support, hugs, check ins, venting sessions, confidence building, and so much more. The staff at OHS has made me who I am after almost 16 years there. It started with my mentor Marty Kuhn, and then has continued throughout the years with students and staff who have loved and supported me, my ideas, and my willingness to never give up. I could name hundreds of students who made me who I am today. They were there for me on the toughest days. It’s a mutual loving relationship and I’m lucky to have learned so much from them. Ashley Carls
