When nominating her for MVP, some of her peers said:

Mrs. Ladd has taken on an incredibly challenging program to help our students become stronger readers, especially those who are below grade level in reading. She has put in hours of extra work to learn the system and get the program up and running, and we’re seeing excellent results.   

If you see Mrs. Ladd in the classroom, the hallway, the office, or anywhere, she will havea smile on her face. She is sweet-spirited and kind with both students and colleagues.
Mrs. Ladd will step in to help when we’re in a pinch without hesitation and with a smile on her face. She is more than willing to take one for the team.
