Congratulations to Mrs. Sharon Karn on being selected as the November Teacher of the Month. Mrs. Karn teaches first grade and elementary science at Northbay Christian Academy. When we arrived at Northbay to surprise Mrs. Karn with her Joto’s Pizza party, the cafeteria was filled with parents, children and flowers. She is truly loved by her students, which was clearly evident by one of the shirts her former students had. It read as follows:

She’s a Teacher…She’s a Nurse…She’s a Wife and a Mother… She is SUPERKARN!

She bakes homemade bread…She makes homemade granola…Her chocolate chip cookies are the best in the world…She’s SUPERKARN!

She’ll meet you early…She’ll stay with you late…She’ll give you a tour of IKEA…Even take your kids on a date…She’s SUPERKARN!

Who can do all this and more? There’s only one…Mrs. Sharon SUPERKARN!

As we left the school, our hands were will filled with quotes and notes concerning Mrs. Karn. While it would take us several pages to print them all, here is what just a few of the parent’s had to say about SUPERKARN!

“Sharon Karn is known for going above and beyond in all she does. She is more willing to serve others than anyone I know!”
– Christie Dittmer

“Mrs. Karn has a unique way of making each child in her class feel loved and special. She takes the time to truly get to know her students by learning about them as individuals.”
– Ronda

“… Mrs. Karn has a husband and four children of her own and yet she went out of her way to attend special classes with me to help my daughter. Truly Amazing! I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sharon Karn.”
