Mary Jane Morris I knew the first time I met you that you would always make a huge impact on your students and your peers. You have always honored the teaching field by being innovative and non-conformist. Thank you for helping me to start my career, you energy and joy for our profession has always kept me focused and ready for each day as we try to guide children to be the best they can be. This is an award you have deserved for many years and I am honored to have you respresent us as Utah teachers.

No surprise you are teacher of the year, Mary Jane. You put over 100% in everything you undertake. You are a wonderful lady and teaching just lets your light build up all those upon whom it shines. Thank you for sharing yourself so generously with all of us who have been fortunate enough to know you.
