"Ms. McColl has been my teacher, mentor, consistent support and now, long time friend. My adventures started with Ms. McColl as my English and Art teacher in high school, where she played an integral role in helping me to receive a full scholarship to The University of Denver. Her dedication to my success continued into adulthood where her mentorship has led me into a career of teaching English and Art overseas. Thank you, Ms. McColl!" -- Michael Lente
"Ms. McColl is a super sweet and hardworking woman. I only had her for art for one year, but she has helped me with ore than just art. During this pandemic, I didn't think anything virtual would work out. Ms. McColl was always in a happy mood, and always willing to help us with anything, during and outside the class. She and I have gotten close, and I really appreciate her. I remember the different techniques we used in our 7th grade class to make a fun, good-looking piece of art. Our time together was short, but Ms. McColl got me through this whole Covid with me still smiling through the screen. Thank you, Ms. McColl!" -- Olivia Chavez
"Ms. McColl was a rock for me in high school. She was able to see the best parts of me, both in my art and my character, and she helped me nurture and grow those qualities. Her early support helped me find the confidence to eventually pursue art full time. It is amazing to see the diverse work of Ms. McColl's students as she challenges each one in the exact area that they need it." -- Marie Milne
