\u201cNot only is she a strong leader when working with teachers, she also creates positive working relationships with teachers from other schools. Through her patience, experience and willingness to listen and collaborate, she has earned the respect of psychology teachers throughout Lincoln Public Schools, in Nebraska and across the country.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>

Former student Olivia Haller said this about Herting:<\/p>

\u201cMs. Herting is one of those teachers who stands out because she embodies more than just the title of teacher. Other descriptors that come to mind are mentor, ally, advocate, teammate, friend.\u00a0You would be hard pressed to find someone as authentic, dedicated and passionate as Ms. Herting.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
