Every month, the Reeds Spring School District recognizes one exceptional teacher with an Excellence Award. December’s deserving winner is Ms. Lesley Reeves-Eakins, a special education teacher at Reeds Spring High School.

“In my first year as the principal, I instantly recognized her remarkable compassion for all students,” said Principal Brandon Weldy. “Lesley goes above and beyond, creating a nurturing and inclusive learning environment while also holding students accountable for their learning. This award is a testament to her outstanding commitment to education, making a positive impact on the lives of her students every day.”

This is Reeves-Eakins’ eighth year with the district. One colleague called her inspiring.  

“She builds long-lasting relationships with students,” said Misti Langston. “Lesley undoubtedly makes a positive difference every day!” 

The district accepts Excellence Award nominations from students, staff, parents, and community members. You can find the nomination form on the district website.
