How Full is Your Bucket? Davidson Appreciates Teachers

how-full-is-your-bucketHave you ever been asked if you are a “bucket-filler” or a “bucket-tipper”? If you’re a “bucket-filler” you choose to make other people happy. And, if you do that, you fill your own bucket with happiness in return. On the other hand, if you are a “bucket-tipper” you make other people sad and it ends up emptying your own bucket too. The teachers at Wards Creek and Mill Creek are bucket-fillers. Davidson Realty is doing a year-long contest called “Davidson Appreciates Teachers”. We have split it up into 4 quarters recognizing the different grades and support staff. I have been truly touched by the emails and phone calls I have received in the past month.

Every email and phone call nominating the teachers from Pre-k, Kindergarten and First Grade from the two schools has filled my bucket! Parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles have taken the time to share their gratitude for the experience their child has in Mill Creek and Wards Creek. For many parents, they are describing their first experience in the school district. How amazing is it that we live in a community with such high quality schools! We have confidence in our schools to help us raise our children to be responsible adults that give back to our community and be productive in our society. After all…it takes a village!

I plan to share all the emails I’ve received with the special teachers. One email said “I would like to nominate Rachel Kenyon for the Davidson Appreciates Teachers contest. Being that I have two children at Ward’s Creek, I have been blessed enough to have Mrs. Kenyon for the second time. She is so dedicated in providing the best educational experience possible for all children in her class. She is extremely nurturing while at the same time firm in her high expectations of each individual in her class. She fosters an educational experience that starts kindergarteners off with such a strong foundation intellectually, socially and emotionally. It is a true blessing to have teachers like Mrs. Kenyon enriching our children’s lives.” 

The top 3 teachers from each school will be posted February 15th on Davidson Realty’s Facebook Page. You can cast your vote by “liking” or posting a comment. If there is a teacher that you would like to nominate, email me at kcalhoun@davidsonrealtyinc.com or call 904-940-5000.  Don’t forget to visit our Facebook page between February 15th and March 14th and help us fill that special teacher’s bucket!!!
