NORWOOD PARK — Taft High School's teachers of the month for April not only get bragging rights — they also get the best parking spots on campus.

Principal Mark Grishaber picked faculty members Christine Medunycia, who also coaches the Norwood Park school's girls soccer team, and Rachael Nicholas, a seventh grade social studies teacher, as teachers of the month for the Norwood Park school, 6530 W. Bryn Mawr Ave.

Both "embody the spirit and commitment to excellence that make us proud to have them on our staff," according to a statement from school officials.

Grishaber gave up the principal's parking spot in order to honor a teacher every month when he took the top job at the school in July 2014.

Grishaber accepts nominations for teacher of the month via email.
