Georgette Herrald – Pleasant Hill School District

“Mrs. Herrald has been a literal God Send to my twin grandsons. She’s supported them through all 4 years they were at the Primary School. She’s been a support system and resource to my daughter as she navigated the world of special needs education. Her guidance and compassion are such a blessing. She literally loves every child she has in her class.”

Kala Randol – Pleasant Hill School District

“Mrs. Randol is the most dedicated teacher I have seen since my son started in school in 2019. Mrs. Randol goes above and beyond to make sure her class is taken care of and gives each student the individual attention they need in class. She recognizes naturally what they need on a daily basis. She puts in time before and after school to make sure that everything is perfect for her students the next day. Another area that Mrs. Randol is great at is making sure her class leaves for the next grade with valuable life lessons that they can take with them. Teachers like Mrs. Randol truly make a different in her teaching approach year after year.”
