Black Press and Staples, in partnership with Camosun College, are proud to recognize some of the great teachers found here in the Capital Region. We asked our readers to nominate teachers who have gone above and beyond to make a difference in the lives of the students they teach.

Brent Metcalfe is a teacher at Savory elementary school. Here is what nominator Tina Robertson-Meikle had to say about him:

Brent Metcalfe is calm, fair and so much fun. He has made a huge impact on not only my daughter but his entire class. He approaches each day with such positivity it is insipring. From dressing up like the wolf in grandmothers clothes for literacy day to wearing bunny glasses for Easter he makes every day fun and engaging.

Look for our Great Teachers special section running June 21 which will recognize the three teachers selected as this yearB次元官网网址檚 representatives as well as list all of the West Shore nominees.
