Ms. Masperi has won the 8th grade teacher of the month award for October with her wonderful teaching. She definitely deserves it!

Ms. Masperi said she felt “very surprised and flattered” when finding out she won the award for this month.

She actually started teaching here at WMS and WHS, but after her first year she stayed at WMS permanently. Her love of history was “instilled” into her from her dad, but she wanted to start teaching because of a few of her high school teachers.

Ms. Masperi said, “There’s so many things that I enjoy about teaching that it’s hard to pinpoint my favorite”. If she were to choose, she said her favorite thing is when she shared something about history with her students and they find it interesting or take an interest in it.

She also said that she enjoys teaching the middle school age-range and sharing what she likes, which is history, with them.

We’re cheering you on, Ms. Masperi! We hope you win again soon!
