Ms. Noyes has remained a constant support in my life. She has always been just a phone call away, guiding me through the challenges of transitioning into college life.

During my senior year, I experienced an unimaginable loss—my younger brother passed away unexpectedly. I missed a week of school, and during that time, Ms. Noyes immediately reached out to check on me. When I returned, she went above and beyond to help me catch up—not just in her class, but in all of my classes. With her help, I was able to manage my schoolwork despite the grief I was carrying. She shared that weight with me, making it possible to stay focused when school felt like the last thing on my mind.

Navigating financial aid was another major challenge. As the first person in my family to attend college, the process was completely new to me. I came to Ms. Noyes with countless questions, and she never once made me feel like a burden. She took the time to explain everything in a way I could understand, and because of her support, I was able to complete my financial aid forms efficiently and correctly.

Time management was also something I struggled with. I often procrastinate because I was overwhelmed with the pressure of graduation. Ms. Noyes was endlessly patient. She kept our class focused, posted a weekly planner on the whiteboard so we could stay organized, and broke down our assignments into manageable parts that made it easier for students like me to stay on track.

Ms. Noyes is more than an educator—she’s a mentor, a guide, and a deeply compassionate person. Her support and love has extended far beyond the classroom. I truly believe I got through my senior year because of her. She is supportive, patient, empathetic, and genuinely passionate about her students and her work. She has made a lasting impact on my life, and I will never stop being grateful for her.

I wholeheartedly encourage anyone to seek out her support. It has made all the difference for me.
