"Mrs. Noble was everything we could have hoped for in a teacher for our daughter--and more! She possesses a gentle spirit, abounding patience, and the unique ability to connect with each student according to his or her individual needs. Mrs. Noble was an open, honest, and compassionate communicator with our family as we worked as a team to emotionally and practically support our daughter in the classroom. She was willing to be flexible and approach challenges from a child-centered viewpoint. Academically, we watched our daughter make strides as Mrs. Noble guided her with competence and creativity. Future students of Mrs. Noble will be gifted with a kindhearted, sincere teacher who genuinely cares about the student as a whole!"

"Mrs. Noble is an exemplary educator, colleague, and leader. As an educator, Mrs. Noble provides superior instruction and support to her students. She goes above and beyond to create engaging lessons that foster a positive and safe environment. Her classroom promotes student interaction and mastery of standards. Her instruction is innovative, dynamic, and effective. She develops a natural rapport with her students and families through kindness and patience while maintaining the highest level of professionalism. I have witnessed Mrs. Noble challenge GATE students with high quality instruction and provide additional support to students that are struggling in a specific area."

"This past year Mrs. Noble has been my daughter's teacher. That was her title, however she was so much more than that and more then we could ever have dreamed for. While this was an exceptionally challenging year in our family, due to my husband being out of the country for a year and three family deaths in the matter of two months, Mrs. Noble was our rock. She was caring and compassionate and was there to help our daughter not only learn, but she was there to help her get through our roller coaster year. While we are so sad to see Mrs. Noble leave our school we feel so fortunate that we are now able to share her with you."

"I was in your sixth grade Language Arts/ Social Studies class in 2004-2005. I recently graduated from Chapman University with a degree in Education and am currently pursuing teaching credentials at Chapman in Single Subject- English for secondary, as well as Multiple Subject for elementary, and I will be student teaching this spring. In many of my teaching classes, we are encouraged to think of teachers that inspired us to want to pursue teaching and your name always comes to mind first. I was interested in reconnecting with you to thank you for inspiring me to love the English language and aspire to be a teacher as well. I was also interested in sometime discussing your personal teaching philosophy and any advice you may have for future teachers. Thank you again for how much you and your class has meant to me."

The students in her class excel during the time spent with her, both academically as well as personally. She promotes student engagement and allows for exploration and inquiry in the classroom in order to encourage higher levels of thinking and learning. She has a huge heart for kids and is an awe-inspiring educator."

-Martie, Former Colleague

"Mrs. Noble is an extraordinary teacher who is respected by her students, her parents, and her colleagues. She is the kind of teacher that everyone wishes their own child could experience and who always leaves her students with a thirst for knowledge. She is a positive team player who always has student success as her number one priority."
