Susan Garrison
Elementary School Teacher
John Day
Canyon City, Oregon

"Since NCLB went into effect, I spend the first seven months of the school year preparing for testing and then only really get to teach the last two months. I engage the students in practical application activities that, in my opinion, are more important than how well they perform on a test. These activities allow students to prove what they know and how to use it."
