Mrs. Everall was the best teacher I had in my entire school years. Hands down the best teacher. Whenever I compared my teachers as well as my children's teachers it was always against her. And she always won. She had to ability to bring to life, history. She would have us close her eyes while she painted the picture of the setting of the exact history we were studying. I am not surprised she eventually took up painting. She could teach like no one else and most importantly she really cared if you learned. I mean she had a passion to accomplish what she did. She was a true and dedicated teacher, and no one was leaving her class without learning the curriculum in its entirety. I, myself, taught for a few years and I tried to carry her same passion. I wanted to make sure the kids were ready for the next level...as did she. What an amazing role model. I absolutely loved her and respected her. I never got back to visit her and it has always been a regret. But she has been in my heart since the first class I ever took with her. I am quite confident she is resting in the peace she has well earned and certainly deserves. Thank You Mrs. Everall for all you did for me. - Posted by: Patti Del Grosso (Reece) (student) on: Aug 10, 2016
