Happy Native American Heritage Month! We owe many of our education milestones to Native Americans—from mathematical principles to governmental models. While we're grateful all year round, we put a special emphasis on celebrating these contributions and the culture and heritage of Native Americans during the month of November.

Lacey Smith

Cornerstone Elementary School, TN

“Ms. Lacey is an excellent teacher! She loves building relationships with her students as the year progresses by using the curriculum to build students' self-esteem. The majority of her lessons focus on cultivating reasoning skills and making meaning of the text. Students feel safe [to] productively struggle and build stamina to persevere through difficult tasks. Students feel free to talk and discuss text and encourage each other to talk and engage in opportunities to clarify or improve understanding. Cornerstone Elementary is honored to have Ms. Lacey!”
