Kannapolis City Schools Presents Danielle Ellington with the Hilbish Ford Teacher of the Month Award


Danielle Ellington is an outstanding 5th grade teacher at Kannapolis Intermediate School. Her interactive and thoughtful teaching methods keep her students excited about school and eager to learn. 

Danielle is able to take the material she is teaching in class and turn it into memorable experiences for her students. For example, she made Pilgrim stew in her classroom to teach the students about the first Thanksgiving. She also made butter and candles as part of Colonial Day in her classroom. One parent praised Danielle for this type of attentive and time consuming planning for her classes and said her daughters will always remember these lessons. The parent also said she appreciates that Danielle communicates not only her daughter’s shortcomings, but also her accomplishments. Danielle is very considerate in pointing out the good in each of her students and they recognize how much she cares about them as a result. She is truly an asset to Kannapolis Intermediate School.

We are extremely proud that Danielle is part of our Kannapolis City Schools’ family, and we are and delighted to present her with the Hilbish Ford Teacher of the Month Award. Congratulations!
