Teacher of the Year named
Anne Fleck is instructor at Citrus Springs Elementary
Like diamonds in the sky, the nominees at the annual Galaxy of Stars event to honor the 2012 Teacher of the Year and 2011 School-Related Employee of the Year shined Tuesday night at Citrus Hills Golf and Country Club.
Fifty-one Citrus County School District employees were honored, but only one from each category could be named to the top awards.
Anne Fleck, third grade teacher at Citrus Springs Elementary School, was named Teacher of the Year.
“When we talk about Anne, we’re excited about what goes on in her classroom,” said Sandra “Sam” Himmel, school district superintendent. “What goes on in her classroom is rigorous and adventurous. She makes learning exciting.”
“Anne’s philosophy is: ‘It’s all about kids.’ She truly makes a difference in the lives of her kids,” she said.
Scott Herbert, principal at Citrus Springs Elementary School, described Fleck as having a deep compassion for children and noted that her “innate ability to work with children is amazing. She can establish rapport with any child and considers every child worthy and important … When you walk into Mrs. Fleck’s class, it is evident that children come first.”
