Teacher of the Year
Ms. Bridgette Ukah!!!
We are so proud to announce our 2022-2023 Teacher of the Year for Tara Elementary. Ms. Ukah exudes a cheerful spirit that is contagious to all those around her. Serving our Kindergarten team as a grade level chair, she has shown us just what it means to develop and grow her scholars! Her students come to school everyday excited to participate in engaging, thoughtful, and inspired lessons in which she teaches the "whole child". The title of Teacher of the Year is only the beginning for our shining star, and we can't wait to see what else comes her way!
At Tara, we are galloping full speed ahead into peak performance!!!
