🐾💙🖤 It's Teacher Proud Tuesday at MCE! 🖤💙🐾

We are excited to recognize two incredible educators who make a difference every day at MCE! Please help us congratulate Mr. Zac Fransten, High School Science Teacher, and Mrs. Amber Reding, 3rd Grade Teacher!

Mr. Fransten is known for his kindness, humility, and ability to make every student feel seen and valued. One coworker shared: "I see someone who quietly and humbly comes in each day to teach, but he unknowingly does more. Mr. Fransten has the ability to see the kids that can be overlooked at times and give them the encouragement that they need."

Mrs. Reding brings positivity and encouragement wherever she goes! Whether she's pouring into her students, sending an uplifting message to a coworker, or simply greeting others with a smile, she helps make MCE a better place for everyone. One coworker shared: "Amber shows up each and every day with a smile on her face. She is extremely encouraging to students and staff alike. She is quick to send an encouraging text or compliment people around her, helping to foster a positive environment in our school."

Mr. Fransten and Mrs. Reding, thank you for being the kind of teachers who make MCE such a special place! Your kindness, encouragement, and dedication leave a lasting impact on our students and staff. We are so proud to call you MCE Panthers! 🐾
