This week’s Crash the Class episode was filmed in Manhattan, Kansas where Dean Debbie Mercer surprised Gianna Navigato, a 4th grade teacher at Oliver Brown Elementary School. Gianna was nominated by Lindsey Thyer, an Academic Advisor for Kansas State College of Education. Gianna is a caring and hard working teacher, who is making a huge impact on her students and staff. If you know a recent K-State grad who is teaching in Kansas that you would like to nominate for Crash the Class please fill out our nomination form @https://coe.k-state.edu/collaboration.
