Channel 5 recognizes Heights High teacher

PRIDE students in Sylvia Stewart-Lumpkin's English class are excited she was nominated for WEWS's Terrific Teacher Tribute

Heights High English teacher Sylvia Stewart-Lumpkin was nominated for the WEWS Terrific Teacher Tribute by a former student. “She’s a tough teacher, but when you walk out of her class, you are so much smarter than you were when you walked in. She makes you earn everything,” the student, who wishes to remain anonymous, wrote. 

Stewart-Lumpkin was recognized on WEWS Channel 5’s morning show, Good Morning Cleveland, on Feb. 8. Watch the video clip at http://www.newsnet5.com/news/22508031/detail.html.
