Congratulations to Pam Repko, the Teacher of the Year at South Cache Middle School!
The moment someone walks into Pam Repko’s classroom, they immediately feel calm and invited. This is the environment that Repko has strived to create in her 12 years of teaching as a speech-language pathologist at South Cache Middle School. Her ability to compassionately support each individual student is one of many reasons why she has been selected as the 2019-20 Teacher of the Year at South Cache.
Repko feels driven to make a positive difference in the lives of everyone she meets. She strives to do this in her classroom by understanding the needs of each student and by encouraging them to reach their potential. Her kindness and patience are noticed and appreciated. “Pam is an incredibly empathetic person,” explained Principal Doug Snow. “She is professional in every way and is compassionate and cares deeply about her students and the teachers in her department. She is well-deserving of this award.”
Colleagues at South Cache have also been affected by Repko’s positivity and influence. “She is supportive of the school culture and is an amazing example to our staff, especially our new teachers,” Snow continued. “She is selfless with her time as she mentors them. They all feel fortunate to have Pam as their department head, mentor and coach.”
“I believe that everyone has time and talents to share,” Repko shared. “I also believe that communication is the foundation of all relationships and that positive relationships can be built by combining time, talents, and communication.”
