This is just beautiful:

That's the kind of reaction you can only get with a last-second buzzer-beater of a shot—that, or when a bunch of eight-year-olds realize they're about to get hot chocolate. JUST PURE JOY!

It turns out that this isn't Ms. Fitz's first rodeo:

A third-grade teacher in a D.C. schoolyard hit a bucket from the length of the court, meaning all the students would get hot chocolate, and pandemonium ensued.

That teacher had a shooting form that looked like it was not her first time picking up a basketball. In fact, it was Kathleen Fitzpatrick, who played collegiately for Rutgers.

Doesn't matter, she's still teacher of the year in my book!
