Ridge View High School Social Studies teacher Mr. Derrill Felkel was presented with the Culture of Excellence Award at our faculty meeting on Monday, January 6th. Mr. Felkel has taught social studies, mostly U.S. Government, since Ridge View opened its doors.

This award is presented to teachers who have made an exceptional contribution to Ridge View High School in one or more of the following areas: teaching and learning, collegiality, commitment to excellence, work ethic, belief that all children can succeed, and valuing diversity. In addition, these teachers exhibit the four P's of an effective teacher: Punctual, Positive, Professional and Proactive.

Mr. Felkel was nominated by LTC Todd Nord and Rena' Nord, whose two children were both taught by Mr. Felkel for his "Amazingness" in regard to his unmeasurable support and involvement with their children. The Nord's also described him as a "rock solid father figure" through 8 years of military deployment by LTC Nord.

Mr. Felkel, The View is proud of YOU! Thank you for making a difference in the lives of our students.
