School: Prairie View Elementary School, North Prairie, WI
Nominated by: Ann Dudek
Why she was nominated: Elizabeth Engelking is an art teacher for Prairie View Elementary & Eagleville Charter School, part of the Mukwonago Area School District. Ms. Engelking goes above & beyond every day to share her love of art with students & staff both in the classroom and beyond. Our hallways our decorated and updated frequently throughout the year, showcasing the student's art projects. Additionally, every year we host an all-school art show, and the time beyond her school hours and the effort she puts into transforming our building to fit that year's theme is amazing. She is always willing to go above & beyond in everything she does.

Our students love art class. Beth also spends time promoting the arts through a community event held locally each year and through teaching adult art classes for staff &/or community members. She has also (pre-Covid) worked on bringing in artists to our school and taking students to the Milwaukee Art Museum.
