Congratulations to our new Teacher of The Week Amanda Milazzo from Brookview Elementary School in Rockford! Amanda was nominated by parent Cathy Fatjo and the nomination letter reads -
My daughter and I moved back to the Rockford area after being gone for 5 years and last year was really hard on her transitioning to a new school and she did not do well last year. Fast forward to this year her 3rd grade teacher Mrs. Milazzo has been a blessing she has called me via Zoom to come up with the best plan for my daughter who has ADHD.

Sickle Cell Disease
We have quite a hill to climb to overcome this virus and get back to our pre-pandemic lives. Herd immunity is the goal. I m sure you ve heard that expression.
Herd immunity occurs when enough people become immune to a disease to make its spread unlikely. As a result, the entire community is protected, even those who are not themselves immune. Herd immunity is usually achieved through vaccination, but it can also occur through natural infection.
