Miss Melancon was my FAVORITE teacher. I had her in 4th grade. I remember our Japanese meal which was held in the office. She made learning such fun. Im sure she touched many lives and made a difference in so many lives. RIP Miss Melancon. You will be missed but you have left memories never to be forgotten.

She was my teacher at Atkins Elementary. I will always remember her lessons on Japan, Sakura and green tea. She surely left her mark. The world lost some of it's light for sure. RIP Ms. Melancon
