Congratulations to Mrs. Linda Jordan on being selected as the February Teacher of the Month. Mrs. Jordan has devoted the past 29 years to teaching and she is currently in her sixth year of teaching fifth grade at Indian Rocks Christian School. “Teaching has been a dream of mine ever since I was a child,” Linda told us. “When I was a sophomore in high school I served as a Teacher’s Aide, and I knew at that time that I wanted to spend my life teaching and helping others.”

Not only does Mrs. Jordan have a deep passion for teaching but she also has a passion for science and the environment. While at IRCS Mrs. Jordan has developed a project with the Southwest Florida Water Management organization teaching students how to conserve and care for the use of water. She has also helped her class develop an amazing Hydroponic strawberry garden at the school.

Mrs. Jordan is truly loved and appreciated by both her students and parents at IRCS. Here is a sampling of what they had to say about their favorite teacher.

We appreciate Mrs. Jordan, her hard work, dedication, and love for the children. Plus she is a “Hoosier” like myself! God bless her!

Mrs. Jordan is just an amazing person and is worth her weight in GOLD. The treatment that we received from Mrs. Jordan over the summer when she did the math camp was remarkable. We are so thankful that our son is in her class. It’s right where he needed to be.
– Laura

Science is the greatest subject to me, but it’s even greater because of Mrs. Jordan. Mrs. Jordan is the best teacher ever!
– Olivia Covert

Mrs. Jordan is the BEST teacher I have ever had. She plans fun field trips and fun stuff to do!
