Congratulations to Pasco County teacher of the year, science teacher Kathryn Bylsma! It should be noted the Kathryn served on the committee that wrote the state’s new science standards.
“It pays to be a nerd,” she said.
O.K., so leaving it at just that quote is unfair.
“She makes us think in different ways instead of just making us read a textbook,” said Casey Chitty, 11. “She’s hands on.”
Alex Van Hulle, also 11, called Bylsma “funny” and said she makes learning fun.
…
“Her knowledge of science is immeasurable, and her worth is immeasurable,” Principal BethBrown said.
