Finding Mrs. Warnecke instructs the inspiring history of Cindi Rigsbee, a three-time Professor of the Year, and Barbara Warnecke, the first-grade professor who had a deep and lasting impact on Cindi's life. Cindi, an insecure child who craved positive attention, started out her first-grade 12 months with a professor who was psychologically abusive and played out favorites in the school room. Two months in to the school 12 months, her principal arrived to the school room and declared that 1 / 2 the students were being moved to another school room - a dank, windowless basement room, with a young and inexperienced professor. This change ended up being the best thing that ever occurred to Cindi. Her new professor, Mrs. Warnecke, made learning come alive on her behalf students. She gone overboard caring for every child, made her school room "magical", and urged students to go after their dreams. Although Cindi was reluctant to explore her imagination as a student, Mrs. Warnecke urged her to read and write poetry, which became a lifelong interest. The two stored in touch for several years but lost an eye on each other when Mrs. Warnecke moved out of talk about. Cindi spent many years looking to reconnect so she could give thanks to Mrs. Warnecke for making such a difference in her life, but to no avail. Eventually Cindi became a professor herself, and 30 years later she has trained more than 2,000 children and been called Teacher of the Year on her behalf home talk about. She later arrived to realize that those years she wasn't really looking to locate Barbara Warnecke, but instead, she was looking to "find Mrs. Warnecke" within herself. In Fall 2008 Cindi and Barbara were reunited on Good Day America; the show's providers had tracked Barbara down and helped bring both women on-set for a tearful reunion. Barbara was floored at this attention - she had no idea she could have made such an impact on a past student's life. As Cindi travels around discussing with new and experienced educators, she is always contacted by audience users who are moved to tears and want to share the storyplot of the "Mrs. Warnecke" in their own lives. Finding Mrs. Warnecke not only instructs the story of the professor who made a lifelong impact on her students, it illustrates the importance of the professor/student romantic relationship in the school room, and offers principles for other instructors to follow to produce a positive impact in their own classrooms.
