Freedom science teacher Jennifer Boyko, DCCA’s High School Teacher of Year
The Dale City Civic Association’s High School Teacher of the Year was Jennifer Boyko, science teacher at Freedom High School.
At the start of each school year, Boyko shares with her students, “If you are not actively becoming something, you are passively becoming something else.”
Boyko views teaching as the honor of influencing lives beyond a subject by modeling the importance of healthy communication, empathy, passion, and compassion.
She embraces cultural diversity and enjoys learning from her students as much as they learn from her. Many of her students are interested in the medical field, so she assists with connecting them with programs at local hospitals.
Boyko is interested in the environment and sustainability and supports community and highway clean-ups.
