May Teacher of the Month: Sara Glotzbach
TOPEKA (KSNT) — Sara Glotzbach's love for teaching started at Chanute High School, with the Future Educators of America class. 'I've taught 3rd grade, 4th grade, 6th grade, I was an instructional math coach, I was a principal, and now I teach 7th grade math,' Glozbach said. That adds up to 20 years in the education field! 'I love being a part of my students' lives,' Glotzbach said, 'I love being a part of my family's lives and really getting to know them. Even though students come here, we see a very tiny portion of who they are as a whole. It's important to know what else they like to do, what else they like to do and what else is going on in their family. That way we can kind of focus on the whole child, versus just the 46 minutes we get them in a middle school.' Kansas sees smoky, hazy skies Monday due to Canadian wildfires That focus and extra effort for each student make Mrs. Glotzbach a standout in her school. 'We have academic teams so students are grouped together with their science, social studies, math and English teacher,' Seaman Middle School Principal, Kyle Johnson said. 'She's a leader on that team and makes sure that every student on her academic team are supported, not just in the classroom but in everything that they do.' Bringing math concepts to life through engaging scenarios also makes her a favorite around the school. 'In our leadup to when we were doing testing, I walked into her room for a walkthrough, and they had like a beach party as they were reviewing and getting ready for assessments,' Johnson said. 'It's that kind of attention to detail and willingness to engage students that just makes her such a fantastic teacher.' $1.9 billion CHIPS grant denied for Kansas Throughout her two decades in education, she's found ways to connect with students and their families that truly resonate well beyond the classroom. 'This is a craft that we have honed,' Glotzbach said. 'I take what I do very seriously, because it is serious. We are educating the future of America, and we want them to be best that they possibly can be.' For more Teacher of the Month, click here.
