Olentangy's Top News

Tyler Run Elementary School (TRES) teacher Becky Dittman was honored as the winner of the Barnes & Noble My Favorite Teacher Contest last weekend.  Ms. Dittman was chosen from dozens of entries at the Dublin Barnes & Noble store. She was nominated by a former TRES student and current Olentangy Liberty Middle School (OLMS) student Jessica S.   Students were invited to nominate their teacher by writing essays, poems or thank-you letters that share how the teacher influenced their lives. Entries were judged on the compelling nature of the teacher’s qualities, the sincerity of the student’s appreciation and the quality of expression and writing. Ms. Dittman and Jessica received book prizes and gift certificates.
