VYPE: Who is your favorite teacher from any grade and why?

Jacquelyn: I want to thank coach Henderson for everything and coming into my life in 2020 when she taught and coached at Edison, and Coach Karr for teaching me everything I know about basketball, and of course my parents, who are the most loving and supportive parents anyone could ever ask for. Thank you. I love you all.
