Weekly Notification

Cassidy Diamond is this week’s recipient of the Provo Way; she is an invaluable mentor, collaborator, and friend to all, as evidenced by Mackenzy Turner’s admiration for her guidance and teaching approach. “She’s a great person to bounce ideas off of. If a lesson maybe didn’t go super well, then I can ask her like, Hey, how did you phrase this? Or how did you teach this? Or what manipulatives did you use? Then I can try those in my class; it always goes much better than I thought it could have. Cassidy is a great example.” Read the full story on the district website.
