I am fortunate to have worked with Mme. Francine at over the last 9 years that I have been a parent volunteer at Dorset School. My children have not had the benefit of being in her classroom, but she touched all students and adults alike with her patience, compassion, respect and love for learning. She is a role model for all of us and greatly deserves this acknowledgement and more. She doesn't even know how great she is! Thank you Mme. Francine for being the teacher that all of us will consider our role model. She is an angel on earth. I am fortunate to have worked with Mme.

Really? $1000 for professional Development? How about 5K for a nice deserved vacation away from kids? Prime Minister’s Award for Teaching Excellence is pathetic. “Perkal Scott was honoured for her achievements with a $1,000 cheque to be used for professional development or teaching tools.”
