I’m nominating Cassandra Coulter, who teaches 5th grade in Nome, Alaska. She calls her students, delivers meals and homework packets, and checks in on them during this difficult time. She sacrifices time with her own family to pour into her students. She deserves this prize more than anyone I know.
