April’s Teacher of the Month By Tiffany Neely | April 24, 2019 at 4:23 PM CDT - Updated April 24 at 7:09 PM JONESBORO, AR (KAIT) - It was no April Fools prank that brought us to Amanda Stevens’ classroom at Jonesboro Health, Wellness, and Environmental Studies Magnet. We walked into Stevens’ second grade classroom, noting her nomination letter stated she makes a special impression on her students. She became a teacher after completing her degree at ASU as a single mother with two teenage girls.
