Biszewski never says a bad word about her students. If there was an issue, she would work it out. She heard all sides and showed fairness to all involved.

She attended our sporting events, fundraisers, and even worked the beer tent at our carnivals. She got to know our families and we knew all about hers. Mrs. Biszewski’s dedication to us for so many years, her love for her students, and her ability to make learning fun made her my favorite teacher and one I will always
