Tekonsha Schools has been so blessed over the years to have caring and dedicated teachers and staff. No one exemplifies those qualities more than Betty Shank. For decades, Betty served in many many different roles for the district, with her most notable being the head of the elementary library. Betty has always had a passion for kids and willingness to make sure that all students had whatever they needed to be successful (often at her own expense)!
Last Friday, we had a special surprise when Betty dropped by to say hi!!! She just couldn't miss out on bringing new books for students. Former students and families were invited to share on Facebook some of their memories of how Betty had touched their lives over the years. So many wonderful and thoughtful posts were made, and her daughter responded, "Mom has read all of the lovely comments. She wanted to say thank you for your kind words. Also, she enjoyed being with each and every student." Thank you, Betty Shank!!
