Dear Staff, Students, Parents & Community,
We are pleased to announce that two outstanding teachers have been selected to represent Smoky Hill High School in the 2017-2018 Colorado Teacher Awards program. Select teachers throughout the Cherry Creek School District will be honored at events in March and May 2018.
English teacher Kersten Mullan and math teacher Jessica Edwards are this year's honorees.
We are compiling a notebook honoring and celebrating Kersten Mullan and Jessica Edwards and the contributions they have made to the community, Smoky Hill High School, and Cherry Creek Schools. These letters will help the district selection committee understand why the Smoky Hill High School community feels these two are so deserving of this recognition. Upon completion, their own "book of letters" will be presented to Kersten Mullan and Jessica Edwards.
Please help us honor Kersten Mullan and Jessica Edwards by sending your letter of support by March 23, 2018.
You may drop off your letter in the main office mailbox:
