Today, AT and Erin chat with the first of the 2022 honorees of the New Memphis Educator of Excellence award, Mrs. Valen Warner.

Valen is surrounded by a strong family of educators, and her passion for students is palpable. She shares how she seeks out opportunities for grants to better improve her knowledge and classroom environment, what she learned on her trip abroad to bring back to her students, and how other educators can "find your Barb" as seen on Abbot Elementary.
