A second-grader battling leukemia during the pandemic was saved from falling behind in class, thanks to a teacher who went the extra mile for him.
Barb Heim, who’s taught first grade at Conneaut Valley Elementary in Conneautville, Pennsylvania, for 35 years, brought lessons to Harrison Conner when he couldn’t make it to class. Driving 20 minutes from school to his home every night, Heim says she’s the lucky one.
