💜🐾 Panther Pride Staff Shout Out 🐾💜
Today’s Panther Pride Staff Shout Out goes to Sam Elling at Ellsworth High School, who was nominated by 2021 graduate Shelby Schultz.
Shelby shared that Mr. Elling was one of the main reasons she decided to become a teacher herself. She said he cares deeply about his students and that there was never a dull moment in his class.
His classroom was a favorite place to be because students felt safe to make mistakes, ask questions, and truly enjoy learning. That kind of environment leaves a lasting impact.
Shelby believes he has influenced the lives of all of his students, not just her and that’s the kind of legacy every educator hopes to leave.
Thank you, Mr. Elling, for inspiring the next generation of teachers and for creating a classroom where students feel safe, valued, and excited to learn. 💜🐾
