Ferndale, Who's Your Favorite Teacher?

It's Teacher Appreciation Week, and Patch wants to give a shout out to all the great teachers out there who are changing kids' lives. Help us tell the story of great education in Ferndale.

We all have a favorite teacher, a person who changed our lives with encouragement, sound advice or a kind word.

It might be the teacher who helped you find your calling or career path. Maybe a special teacher who helped you witness your child bloom and overcome a challenge. Whatever it is, we want to know who that special teacher is.

Who is your favorite teacher? Do you know of a great educator you would like to recognize from the past or present?
