Always ready with a helping hand or a friendly chat, she is the heart and soul of the first-grade team, supporting all of us to succeed. Her passion for making learning enjoyable is evident in the enthusiasm of her students; they would all agree that she makes every lesson fun and engaging!” Mrs. Trina's colleagues said, “Mrs. Trina is a bright ray of sunshine. Dewar is so blessed to have her here with us. She is eager to do whatever is needed to help others, even when it is not part of her job description.
