Predators Teacher of the Month

The Nashville Predators have created a teacher appreciation program that will recognize teachers in the greater Nashville area for their accomplishments. The Predators Teacher of the Month program selects teachers based upon the principal’s portrayal of how this teacher has impacted students, school faculty and others around them. The Predators will target a different county in the greater Nashville area each month. Applications will be distributed by the Predators to the principals.

The selected teachers will be rewarded by a surprise visit from the Predators mascot GNASH. The organization will also present a certificate and a Predators gift basket to the teacher. In addition, the Teacher of the Month will be featured on our Web site and at a game that they will attend.

From the Principal

"Jennifer 'connects' with her students and teaches them at their level to meet their needs. However, while meeting individual academic needs, Jennifer goes that 'extra mile' and helps individual physical, social and emotional needs. Her students are her family and she takes care of them like she does her own sons. While meeting individual needs, Jennifer also teaches teamwork in her classes. Students are excited when each child reaches accomplishments. They encourage each other to follow the rules and be citizens of character. Mrs. Partlow is also a role model for new teachers. She has been a mentor teacher many years and is willing to 'do what it takes' to help our school (teacher, staff, students, parents) be the best it can be."
