Orange County TOY Banquet



Cindi Rigsbee and Orange County Schools invited me to join them for their annual Teacher of the Year Banquet. I was honored and I had such a great time! The food was delicious and I met such inspiring teachers. I enjoyed reading and hearing about the amazing things happening in classroom across Orange County. I had the privilege to dine with Mr. Rhodes, the superintendent of Orange County Schools, and with representatives from BB&T who helped to sponsor the event. I met some truly amazing teachers and I know the selection team had a difficult time choosing the TOY from such a great group of candidates. Congratulations to Wayne Wilson for being selected as the Orange County Teacher of the Year. I am sure you will have a wonderful year!

Back to school


As if the night before was not exciting enough, my return to school was amazing! I am so fortunate to teach in such a supportive school. As I walked into school, our entire student body, my fellow teachers and my principal, Mr. Daughtery, lined up across our the front of our school and gave me a wonderful Midway welcome. All I could do was cry! My former students created this banner and it is truly incredible artwork! To my Midway family, there are not enough words. You guys are so amazing and I love you all! Thank you for the warm welcome home!

Meredith College


On Thursday, May 6, I was honored to attend the Meredith College Teaching Fellows Senior Dinner. I had a great time with a room full of wonderful prospective teachers. I was especially glad I had the opportunity to catch up with one of my favorite professors from Meredith, Dr. Toni Parker.
