CARPER ...from p. 27 After sharing the news of Carper’s award on the Northwest Observer’s Facebook page, numerous people posted comments of congratulations, with some speaking to her influence on them and their children. “A fantastic teacher who made a huge difference in my daughter’s life as well as many others through a difficult school year. Mrs. Carper is a gem,” Karen Kimrey wrote. “I was in Leah Carper’s first English class at Western Guilford. She is amazing and really cares about her students,” Amanda Jordan, a former student, wrote.
