Modesty at its finest. He does 10000000+% more than what his job entails, and we're all incredibly grateful. In fact, we're having a party at his home this weekend (just kidding)

Mr. Cokeley, you are one of the mentors that every student respects, they never stop talking about you. You have impacted their life big time. I haven't had the chance to introduce myself to you in person, but I can't wait to meet you.

Even though you have heard this before, I will still jump on the bandwagon and say "Congrats Mr. Cokeley."

WOW! WOW! WOW!

ooops, sssshhhhhhh.
wow. wow. wow.

Now, I can tell people, my friend from FIRST is a Governor's Teacher of the Year Award.

Actually Mr. Cokeley, you weren't doing your job when you did Robotics. You volunteered for it, and chose to take time out of your schedule and work with teenagers and help develop their minds and broaden their horizons through FIRST. All of that came from your heart, and you deserved this award!

Much Congratulations.

[JudyVandy]

Ditto to all of the above, except YOUR comments, Wayne. I'm honored to know you and pleased to see the results of some of your efforts. You have a lot to be proud of!

Dori, thanks for bring this up---I missed it the first time round!

There can never be enough recognition of a job well done. We can never say enough Thank You's. We can never measure the impact that an inspirational teacher or mentor can make on a student because it's priceless.

Just running any FIRST team is going above and beyond your job. So, uh, I guess staying on top of 25 is a few more notches past that.

Congrats, Wayne!

Congratulations

Wayne,
You are truly an inspiration to us all. I cannot express how wonderful it is to know that a teacher associated with First is recognized with a substantial recognition outside of First. Congratulations! AP Biology and geophysics, WOW!

Congratulations!!
This is really great!! Another great mentor in the FIRST community awarded and it is recognized in the outside community. FIRST mentors shine so bright inside and outside of the FIRST family.

[Freddy Schurr]

WAY TO GO WAYNE!
