Though David Neal stood alone in front of Terrebonne's top educators, politicians and business people Saturday night, all his students were there in spirit. |
"It means a lot to me because my students — they deserve this a lot," said Neal who has taught for 45 years. "I feel like they made me." |
Neal was named the Terrebonne Foundation for Academic Excellence in Public Education's Inspirational Teacher of the Year. |
He teaches special education at South Terrebonne High School and is a longtime basketball coach in the parish. |
The award is considered the highest local honor teachers can receive. It recognizes public school educators who do outstanding work for their students. |
"When I walk into the classroom, these kids give me a speech. I look into their eyes, they want to learn. I look into their heart, they love everyone. They are a utopia for teachers. They made me; I surely haven't made them," Neal said while accepting the award. |
Neal was given the award at a banquet held to honor the hard work of the parish's teachers. Last year's Inspirational Teacher of the Year Award went to Geraldine Seymore Patterson of Greenwood Middle School. |
"This honor can be given for anything, but it is to recognize those teachers who go above and beyond to educate their students," said Yolanda Trahan, the foundation's executive director. |
Neal was one of five finalists for the award. All were nominated by current or former students and their parents. A panel of judges made up of local business and community leaders decide the winner by looking at nomination letters without knowing the name of the nominee, Trahan said. |
The other finalists were Kathleen Benoit of East Houma Elementary, Sheri Ledet of Lisa Park Elementary, Evey Trosclair of Montegut Middle and Alison Seeber of Boudreaux Canal Elementary. |
Though she missed out on the top spot, Seeber said it was an honor to have her hard work recognized. |
"Anything like this is very special because all of us (teachers) should be recognized because we put a lot of ourselves and work into teaching the students," Seeber said. |
The ceremony also honored a teacher of the year at each school. |
"Recognizing teachers of the year is certainly a worthwhile endeavor," said Philip Martin, superintendent of Terrebonne Parish schools. "I continue to be in awe of our teachers when I go in classrooms, and what I see them doing is nothing short of magic." |
The ceremony also honored three district teachers of the year — one for each school level. |
Elementary School Teacher of the Year was Natalie Pittman-Lirette, who teaches fourth-grade at Point-aux-Chenes Elementary. |
"It is really quite astonishing to see all the leaders of the parish here tonight to recognize teachers," Pittman-Lirette said after being recognized. "It really shows Terrebonne cares a lot about education." |
Middle School Teacher of the Year was Tamara Melancon, who teaches eighth-grade at Montegut Middle. |
"It really does help and to notice and see what it takes to do the work we (teachers) do," Melancon said after being recognized. |
The High School Teacher of the Year was Tricia Corbin of South Terrebonne High School, who now serves as the educational technology facilitator for the district. After being recognized, Corbin said her mother was on her mind. |
"She was a teacher for 30 years, and I remember her always putting her students first," Corbin said. "(She is) a role model in teaching and in everything." |
The event also recognized the Terrebonne Parish School District's Principals of the Year — Mary Aucoin of Mulberry Elementary School and Sharon Henry of Village East Middle School. |
Bayou Blue Elementary Teacher of the Year Krista Pertuit emphasized that teaching is a team effort. |
"My principal, she pushes me really hard and keeps our standards high," Pertuit said of her secret to success. |
The banquet also recognized Clifford Smith, chairman of the board at T. Baker Smith, with the James J. Buquet Jr. Award of Distinction. The award is given annually to recognize an outstanding graduate of a Terrebonne Parish public high school. |
The Courier and Whitney Bank sponsored the banquet. |
It's very clear that the Prime Minister's announcement today is one all about narrow interest of her own party, not the interest of the country overall.

Have you noticed how sometimes you are in this kind of state and then sometimes you are in another entirely different kind of state, feeling great and positive one moment, uncertain or confused at another moment and then clear and focused. People often ask me why these fluctuations occur. Sometimes they even think it a... |
As well as learning how to feel totally relaxed and confident in every interview you can use NLP to be persuasive, inspiring and captivating. |
You use the good state you are in and then build on it with persuasive verbal and non-verbal communication. You learn how to get in rapport with the interviewers, so they are already on your side. |
Then you continue to use every form of expression to convince the interviewers. You use the right kind of non-verbal communication, you put the interviewers into a good state, you maintain their interest and you use words and phrases with skill, because you will know which words will have the desired effect. |
The truth is we all communicate unconsciously as well as consciously. What we say with our words, phrases, voice tone, body language, facial expression, even with our breathing usually occurs outside of our consciousness and is received outside of the listener's consciousness. You can use this knowledge to be persuasiv... |
2. Be honest and show progress. Sometimes, bad credit isn't a reflection of bad money management. You may have lost your job, suffered from medical problems, or experienced another financial setback that was out of your control. If this is the case, be upfront about it — before the landlord even runs your credit check.... |
4. Get a roommate. Willing to share your living room and kitchen? Find a roommate. If the landlord will allow just one person to sign the lease, see if your roommate is willing to sign it solo. (Alternatively, try to move in with a roommate who is midlease and can add you without a credit check.) This way, the person o... |
