Teaching as a Pathway Students Selected for State Council
Kayana Barber (Monroe Comprehensive High School) and Cameron Cromer (Westover Comprehensive High School) were selected from a pool of nearly 1,000 applicants from across the state of Georgia to serve on the 2018-2019 Student Advisory Council. Throughout the school year, students will meet with Superintendent Richard Woods to discuss the impact of state policies in the classroom. Members of the Student Advisory Council will also discuss other issues related to education, serve as the Superintendent’s ambassadors to their respective schools, and participate in service projects to benefit schools and students.

Both Barber and Cromer are enrolled at the 4C Academy under the direction of Teaching as a Profession instructor, Dr. Keyla Johnson.  Both students were chosen based on the strength of their essay answers, which focused on their ideas for public education as well as their community service experience.
