Lindsey Calvert was nominated by a colleague, Amy McCampbell.

"Caring, informative, fun. These three words describe Mrs. Calvert," said McCampbell. "Mrs. Calvert is always there for her students, even if it means coming in early or tutoring them after school. She is willing to help them get ahead and do their best.

An interaction I have had with her involves a health issue she had. While it has occurred at school, once her students knew and understood what was going on, I saw them act quickly in coming to her aid. They were very protective of her, and I saw how they watched out for her. Not many teachers get that kind of love and devotion from their students."

I know Mrs. Calvert on a personal level and not as a teacher. However it is hard to separate the two. She is honestly concerned for her students, their families and she loves her community. She gives so much of herself for the students that she is often late getting away and exhausted when she finally does. Then, she will get up and be thankful to get to do it again. She cares.

Mrs. Calvert was my 5th grade teacher when she first started teaching. She left a life long impact on my life and still to this day she is a person I can go to about anything! Keep changing lives one day at a time!
