LifeChanger of the Year Nominee Profile

Michelle Parra was nominated anonymously.

"Ms. Parra has been a blessing to all students, colleagues, and the community. She gives the best of herself every day without expecting recognition or personal gain. When entering her classroom, you feel cozy and welcomed. She will always have a snack for you! Every student loves and respects her. She is generous, humble, and the reflection of her beliefs. Even though she is a Language Arts teacher, she serves her community and church with actions rather than words. She is caring, thoughtful, a great listener to all her students, and nurturing," said the nominator.
