I am thrilled to have so many arts teachers who have been awarded your respective school’s Teacher of the Year or Rookie Teacher of the Year as well as those who have received state and/or national recognition. I don’t know if we have ever had this many teachers of the arts receive these honors. I think this reflects a new direction for GCS. Congratulations once again to all of the following:
Diane Rogers – Theater – Weaver – NC Theater Conference TOY
Keith Taylor – Theater – Weaver – American Alliance Theater TOY
Marta Richardson – Violin – Peeler ES – TOY
Allison Barker – Music – Jamestown ES – RTOY
Beverly Alt – Chorus – NWHS – TOY

Best wishes to you as you continue on to the next round. Wouldn’t it be interesting to have an arts TOY and RTOY?
