Emma Bedard
One of Octobers Teachers of the Month is Emma Bedard, She’s been teaching for 2 years and both of those 2 years have been here at ADM.
Bedard was nominated by a variety of students, which vary from; Seniors, Juniors, and Intro to theater kids all saying she was “helpful and caring when needed.” One students even left her this comment “She is Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!:)” She wanted to become a teacher because she was blessed to have amazing teachers growing up who cared about her and her education. This inspired her to help others to be the very best they can be. Specifically she wanted to become an English teacher because she “Always valued the power of words reading & writing, and its a passion of mine and something I really enjoy.”
Being Teacher of the Month, Bedard Says “It shows the relationships I’m having with my students but also impacting them.” She also said “It shows I’m making a difference on their education.” It also gives her motivation to be better for her students.

![Rhyan Miller is the April student of the month. Miller is the daughter of Charity and Rich Miller, and has maintained a 3.925 GPA. Her three favorite classes in high school have been drama as literature, Prostart II, and news journalism. Miller participates in cross country, theater, individual and large group speech, the prostart team, student council, NHS, silver cord, and track. She feels that her experiences in those activities have made her more extroverted, sharing that she is "not afraid of [her] own voice anymore." Miller plans to attend Winona State University to major in psychology and minor in political science. Her advice to others is to "Fake it 'till you make it." She feels she was selected as student of the month due to her increased active presence in the classroom. She is also thankful for the good parking spot. In honor of her achievements, Raccoon Valley Bank has donated $100 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.](https://blackandredgister.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/20260427_104331-600x450.jpg)
