Lee Martin, 2016 Beginning Teacher Award, Central Public School, Grimsby

The impact of a teacher lasts far longer than the time students are in their class.

Ellen sat down with Akbar Cook, Principal of a Newark, New Jersey high school, who after noticing at-risk students being bullied for dirty clothes, worked hard to install washing machines and dryers so the kids could do laundry. After hearing his story, Ellen teamed up with her friends at Cheerios to help Principal Cook continue to do good and support his "babies" at school.

Mr. Bonner is an inspiring second grade teacher at North Carolina's South Greenville Elementary, where a majority of students have difficult home lives and many are homeless.
