Freeman Scholar Spotlight: Ashlyn Hope Armstrong
Ashlyn has served as an assistant teacher for five years at Greenlee Attendance Center in McCool. Now equipped with her newly earned bachelor’s degree in elementary education, she will step into a new role as a kindergarten teacher there this fall!

“Ever since I was five years old, I knew I wanted to be a teacher because I’ve always loved helping and encouraging others as they learn new things. Teaching feels natural to me, and I want to be the kind of teacher that makes students feel safe, confident, and excited to come to school.”

Congratulations, Ashlyn! 🍎🎓️

“To teach is to change a life forever, and that belief is the reason I chose to become an educator. The Harry Freeman Scholarship has given me the opportunity to continue pursuing my education and preparing to make a meaningful impact in the classroom.”
