Congratulations to Stimson Middle School’s Teacher of the Year Ms. Dana Allen!  Ms. Allen is an active member of the South Huntington school community.   She can often be found working collaboratively with her colleagues.  As a vocal member of the World Language Department, she can be relied on to share her passion for teaching and provide clear examples of how her pedagogy impacts her students.  

Her classroom is a place where students feel safe to take risks and support the learning of their peers.  She crafts lessons that challenge all of her students and engages them in meaningful learning.  This student-centered approach is echoed by her students, where they often take leadership roles within her classroom.  Ms. Allen understands the important work that educators do each day and is passionate about the emotional and academic success of her students.  The entire South Huntington educational community is fortunate to have such a talented professional amongst their faculty.

Ms. Allen's students were happy to see their teacher be announced as Stimson's Teacher of the Year.

Stimson faculty members, alongside Principal Ed Smith, gladly came together to congratulate their well-deserving colleague.
