Hugo Coz would like to nominate Mr. Bechtle from Flint Hill Elementary School because Mr. B is super nice and on his birthday he gave ice cream sandwiches to everyone in the class.

Flint Hill Elementary's Mr. Bechtle is the best! He makes every child feel special every day, he always has something positive to say! He even eats lunch with the kids, who does that?? He teaches flag football after working all day and helps out with the Boy Scouts! Go Mr. B. go!!

Mr. Bechtle at Flint Hill Elementary is an awesome 2nd grade teacher. He teaches what his students need to learn during school and does not expect a lot of homework from kids so home time can be home time spent with family and doing sports and extracurriculars, a philosophy I totally support. His after school flag football was awesome, too!

Notice how all the nominations are from elementaries? I would like to nominate a high school teacher on my son's behalf -- Mr. Shane Rigsby of Madison, whose tales of historical derring do have given my son a love of history that I would have never thought possible. Alex would come home almost every day talking about how much he liked his history class, which was nothing short of a miracle as far as I am concerned. Teenagers rarely like their teachers so he must be awesome!
