Ms. Baluska is my son's (was also my daughter's) kindergarten teacher at Creek Valley Elementary in Chappell, NE.

She truly is one of the most amazing teachers I have ever meant. She has the patience of a god sent. I've never once heard of her getting upset or not treating all kids equally. She realizes all kids have different needs and not a day goes by that I don't see her adjust to each and every one of those needs in her students.

The kids all respect her as she gives them the same respect. She is always upbeat and positive. We are blessed to have her in our school and I couldn't think of a more positive role model for my children.
