Indian Hills Middle School is pleased to announce Andrea Robbins as our 2022-2023 Teacher of the Year. Mrs. Robbins is a veteran teacher in sixth grade Social Studies at our school. While she is a quiet leader, she exemplifies what impact one person can have on so many.

She capitalizes on each learning moment, and she ensures all her students understand the concepts being taught. She is a great teammate and team lead and is always willing to lend a helping hand.”
Mrs. Robbins is a model teacher. The administration often infringes on her classroom to watch great teaching. She develops a safe and courteous learning environment which allows all students to be successful. “I really love Ms. Robbins because she is so kind and teaches really well. When there is a confusing topic in S.S. she breaks it down and makes sure that everyone understands. I think she should win it because she is an amazing teacher.” “Mrs. Robbins teaches my favorite subject in a way that helps me remember everything and teaches it in a fun way with different learning ways.”
Mrs. Robbins goes out of her way to develop relationships with her students. “Mrs. Robbins is my favorite teacher. She is always willing to help anyone so that they can be the best they possibly can. She is really kind and has a really warm heart.
