Team Bio

No Teacher Left Behind has been a consistent presence in the Rose Festival Dragon Boat races since 2005. The team formed from an intrepid group of educators from Lot Whitcomb Elementary School in North Clackamas School District. But over the years our roster has grown and been enriched by not only educators from around the area, but also individuals from diverse fields and backgrounds. We're a welcoming and supportive bunch, and to paraphrase the old adage, it takes a village to paddle a dragon boat. We love to have fun on the water and push ourselves to finish strong. No matter the outcome, “We’re winning!”.
