It was an honor, and a pleasure, for my son to have Mr. Bertsch for a first grade teacher during the 2020/2021 academic school year. Mr. Bertsch was always compassionate, and at the same time, passionate about doing his best to balance a very new and difficult remote learning environment. It had been said… ”remote learning may not be the best scenario for many students”. Mr. B embraced this challenge. His hard work and dedication proved that there was a way to keep his students focused. He made things fun and interesting resulting in a successful and educational school year. Not only did Mr. B accomplish these goals, he taught his students to always be kind to others. He referred to this as, “ kindness ripples”. We continue to use this in our home on a daily basis. My son will always remember to spread kindness through his school years and into his adult life. Owen always says “Mr. B will always be his Favorite teacher”.
