Carruthers named Rotary Teacher of the Month

Mrs. Diana Carruthers, who teaches Art at Scudder Primary, was recognized as the Rotary Club of Wimberley’s Teacher of the Month. Mrs. Carruthers was selected for this honor because she has implemented a new concept to teach art, encourages students to embrace their creative instincts, her students are very excited to be in her class and her activities are developmentally appropriate for young learners.

On March 6, 2019, local Rotarians presented Mrs. Carruthers with her “just desserts” which included Starbucks Coffee, a framed certificate of appreciation, a succulent plant and a Rotary Loves Readers t-shirt.

“Just Desserts” is a teacher appreciation activity organized by The Rotary Club of Wimberley. “Just Desserts” is the most recent addition to the Club’s series of programs under the theme of “Rotary Loves Readers.” These programs include reading initiatives within our schools, library seminars, a nursing home book club, book giveaways, and scholarships. Rotarians are also “Reading Buddies” for 25 current Jacobs Well Elementary 2nd graders who need a little extra practice reading.
