JULIE GELLERMAN, BANNING LEWIS ACADEMY
Julie Gellerman is a beloved elementary school teacher, so much so that some of her students call her “mom.” “When this happens, I laugh because the look on the student’s face is priceless,” she wrote in the Banning Lewis Ranch Magazine. “Then I think to myself, ‘I hope that I am giving them the same kind of love, emotions, and care that their mom does.’”
