🐾 FUN FACT WEDNESDAY! 🐾

Throwing it back to 1998!

Did you know Auburn Elementary teacher Janet Hards received the prestigious Milken Educator Award?

Mrs. Hards was a 4th-grade teacher at AE and was recognized for her innovative approach to teaching. One of her projects used quilting to teach Kansas history, math, fractions, geometry, and art!

But what exactly is the Milken Educator Award?

Often called the “Oscars of Teaching,” it is one of the nation’s most prestigious honors for educators. Teachers don’t apply or nominate themselves—they are selected through a confidential process based on their teaching, leadership, innovation, and impact on students.
And in 1998, Mrs. Hards was one of only four educators in Kansas selected to receive it! 💙💛

Do you remember Mrs. Hards? We’d love to hear your memories in the comments!
