She then uses this to support, and enable them to achieve their goals in a way that fits them. Mrs. Neely-Hoff has experience working with children in the Star program. Recently she had an experience, one of many, where she had to take off her shoes to run and catch a child that was running away from the school. When she caught him he had a smile that read, I am just happy that someone carried enough to run after me. She also took the time to listen to what he needed to share. The next morning she was met with a wave and a smile. That touched her heart and that is why she loves teaching.
