Teacher of the Year announced

Published: February 14, 2008

During first hour on February 11, the entire population of FHN discovered who would be representing them as the teacher of the year.

After sponsoring German club, FrauFest for the past three years, the German exchange student program, mentoring and many other committees, Anne McPartland’s dedication had finally paid off.

“It’s cool and overwhelming,” McPartland said. “ It’s nice to be recognized by my colleagues. It’s like, ‘Hey, they know what I’ve done.’”

After the entire FHN staff voted, 10 nominees were chosen and then the number was narrowed down to three: Mike Kenny, Shelly Grimshaw and, of course, McPartland.

McPartland will follow in the footsteps of Steve Willott and Aaron Manfull.

“I think it’s awesome,” French teacher Dave Fritz said. “She’s well deserving. She gives so much to the North community.”
