On this cold and cloudy Teacher Tuesday, Susan Moore went to Mountain View Elementary in Windsor, Colorado to honor Ms. Kara Englert with the K99/Tri 102.5 Teacher Tuesday award. Ms. Englert is a 3rd grade teacher and smiled shyly when Susan announced her as this weeks' winner to her class.

The class erupted in cheering at the news. Ms. Englert was nominated by a former student, Zantha, whom Ms. Englert said was, "very special to her." Ms. Englert was close to tears at the news and received a hug from Susan.
