ATKINSON ELEMENTARY April Stephens, Kamilah Gordon and Ashley Porter, second grade teachers
These teachers have supported the grade-level over the last few months to ensure that one of our second grade classes, being served by a long term sub, continued to receive quality instruction. They took on extra students during instructional time and included them in small group and whole group instruction to make sure they stayed on pace. Thank you for putting in the extra time and effort to support these students and demonstrating this type of team spirit.
BEAVERBROOK ELEMENTARY Laura Love, teacher and Jerry Lewis, head custodian
Ms. Love quietly comes in and works hard to educate her students. She is reflective, seeks to improve and cares deeply about her students and their achievement. Thank you for being dedicated and reliable!
Mr. Lewis is always friendly, caring and has a positive attitude, even when the demands of the job are unpleasant (sick students, plumbing issues at the school, etc.). He takes pride in his work and is a great role model for his team.

Thank you Ms. Havil for investing in our students and sharing that investment with our community!
JACKSON ROAD ELEMENTARY
Mitzi Barcus
Mitzi is not only extremely conscientious but she is always one of the first people to step up to help in any situation. She recently became our building opener when an employee was out for several weeks because she is typically one of the first employees in the building and doesn't leave until late most days. She spends a great deal of her summer at the building or calling to ask, "When is the very first second I can come back?" If any of our families or staff need anything, she doesn't hesitate to give her time and/or resources. She is a great teacher who is super dedicated to her students and is passionate about getting them ready to take on the next milestone. Thank you Mrs. Barcus!
JORDAN HILL ELEMENTARY
Sandra Whatley, custodian

MOORE ELEMENTARY Lynelle Andrews and Alicia Parker
Both Mrs. Andrews and Ms. Parker should be commended for leading our students in the stunning performance in the winter musical of "Annie" at the December PTO meeting and the Southern Crescent Technical College faculty/staff luncheon. We appreciate their hard work and dedication!
