“Josh creates great relationships with his students and families,” said Meagan Ochoa, Oakville Elementary School principal. “The kids really enjoy being in his third-grade classroom because he provides opportunities for student voice in learning and for the development of collaborative skills.
Even more than the lessons he teaches them in the classroom, Groh strives to build meaningful relationships with each of his students. He has reached students outside of his classroom by serving as a sponsor of extracurricular activities, including Girls on the Run and Garden Club.

“My favorite part of the job is the kids,” said Groh. “I love coming to work and seeing how excited they are to enter the classroom to figure out what we’re doing to be doing that day. I love their excitement and passion. It’s the best part of my day.”
Groh’s hard work has been noticed throughout the Oakville Elementary School community.
