EHS Teacher of the Year

ECSD Teacher of the Year Nominee

Congratulations to Mrs. Beach for being the EHS Teacher of the Year and EHS's nominee for the Elko County School District Teacher of the year!!

Mrs. Beach is an extremely kind-hearted individual, who wants to do what's best for the students and staff of Elko High School. She is the head of our English Department. She is one of our main voices in helping improve our school culture, and assists with meeting our school goals by bringing other staff members together to speak positively about things we are trying to accomplish at EHS. She and her peers have truly focused on finding ways to use NWEA/MAP data to help drive student learning throughout our school. She has been one of the most significant lead teachers in helping drive my vision of implementing Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) and Professional Learning Communities (PLC's) throughout EHS. She is a true professional who shows up to work early every morning and, of course, is one of the last to leave every night. She is an advocate for her English Department, making sure their voices and needs are heard and met. She is a teacher leader whom we have empowered for a reason. She truly is a leader at EHS.

Her peers think very highly of her. So much that she earned over half of the faculty's votes for EHS Teacher of the Year. We believe that she truly is the best candidate for ECSD Teacher of the Year! All of the committees, extra time, and extra work that she puts in has a positive impact in her classroom; however, the service she does for her collogues is why she truly is the teacher of the year. She is impacting students’ lives and her own peers' lives every day we are here at EHS.
