Melissa is a 4th-grade science and social studies teacher at WHAM. Spending 12 years with EBR. She believes in hands-on learning, which makes science an enjoyable experience. She loves the idea of having pets in the classroom, as it teaches responsibility and fosters a love for animals. What kids do outside of the classroom is essential; it`s not just about test scores. Former students say she played a significant role in fostering their enthusiasm for science. #DareToBeGreat #WeAreEBR #ebrschools
