Mrs. Chambers was my 4th grade teacher at Clinton School. She was a caring and inspiring teacher who cared about her teachers and helped us all be better people. Thanks for all she did as a teacher. I wish her family comfort in knowing that she left an enduring impact on her students.

Sincerely,
Ted Henderson
