Rebecca said, "Sarah Margoles is one of the most talented teachers I have worked with. Her classroom is a place of authentic engagement and collaboration where rigor and enjoyment are constantly present, and one does not displace the other. I consistently hear students naming her class as one where they learned and enjoyed themselves the most, regardless of their learning backgrounds, challenges, and gifts.
"This year, Sarah has been supporting five students (three of whom she does not have in her rostered classes) who have elected to complete Science Fair projects, on top of her class load. All of the students/groups changed topics, and she was there to support them and help them problem-solve to end up with successful projects. These meetings were full of both strong thinking and laughter.
As a colleague, she is a wonderful thought partner, and interactions with her always feel productive. She is positive without being forced, and makes everyone she works with feel validated in their perspective."
Congratulations, Sarah!
