Grove an 'outstanding educator'

Editor:

I am writing to voice my support for Lou Grove for Columbia County Board of Education.

Lou has taught both of my older daughters and her son attended nursury school with my youngest child. Lou is an outstanding educator. My older daughters felt her support both inside and outside the classroom, as she always inquired about their pursuits, invited them to share their talents with others and generally went the extra mile to make them feel special.

She is also a deeply devoted mother to her young son Nyle. She

has a firm commitment to education and life experiences that create a

strong and creative mind - both in her role as a mother and as a teacher.

As an educator, I have found that those teachers who truly love children

and truly seek a positive experience for each child are successful, and

often remarkable educators. Lou Grove possesses these qualities and will strive to see that every child has the best education possible.

I firmly support Lou Grove for this position.
