Michele Pipe First Grade Both my grandfather and my grandmother were educators and from early childhood I wanted to be a teacher as well. In my love for interacting with children I have found a calling to help them discover this wonderful world God has created for us. As a teacher, I strive to build a passion for God in my students, as well as a love of learning and academics. I always tell my students that the number one thing I want them to remember is to love God and serve Him. "Only fear the Lord and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you." ( I Samuel 12:24)
