Marsh Prep Teacher of the Year
Patty Kim, Teacher of the Year.
This is Patty’s third year for teaching. She has taught 7th, 7th pre a/p, 8th grade and now is part of the Summit cohort in 6th grade. She is part of Teaching Trust and is a member of the Texas Math and Science Coach’s Association which trains students to compete in mathematics competition.
Ms. Kim embodies the definition of a dedicated teacher. She works tirelessly with her students to ensure content knowledge, but does so in a way that is engaging and exciting. Ms. Kim introduced the Prodigy online game to the math department. Prodigy engages students in active practice of mathematics concepts while taking part in a shared game experience.
Patty’s dedication to her team and the school as a whole is exemplary. She is generous with her time and is always willing to help. Thank you, Patty, for being an outstanding teacher.

Matador Moments
This month we had a scholar join our Marsh family from another country. Unfortunately, this student had a very difficult time adjusting to not only a new school but a new country too. You often saw this student quiet and alone, especially at lunch. One day, in one of his classes he was having an especially hard day, when another student approached him and helped him out on a particular task. That gesture changed the student's view on school. He began to make friends and is more confident in his classes. We never know when a small act of kindness can change the life of another.
