Rachel Johnston, Old Mill Middle South
You take your leadership role to heart and never back down from a challenge. You are always willing to help out and are truly an asset to the school!
Tim Gulley, Solley Elementary
Mr. Gulley stood out to us. He was able to grab the attention of the room without a microphone and was fun and energetic. From that moment, that is who Teagan said she wanted as her teacher.
Tonia Mason, Brooklyn Park Elementary
Thank you for being you with all your love and positive energy! You are our star!
Skill + Compassion = An Amazing Teacher
I always love visiting Ryan's class during American Education Week and I always hope to see just a "normal" class (meaning, not anything special because the parents will be there....just a typical lesson.) And I was thrilled I got to see just that today in your classroom. But, let me clarify: What I saw was anything but "normal." It was exceptional.
The Definition of Dedication
Mr. Stanzione epitomizes what it means to be a dedicated AACPS employee. He gives so generously of his time.
Thank You Mrs. Pillow!
"On August 7, 2008 I heard the worst words a parent can hear, 'Your son has cancer.' I didn't know which end was up. I reached out to [his teacher] Mrs. Pillow to let her know of Tag's situation. I barely remember our conversation, I cried for most of it, but I do remember her saying, 'Jen, Tag will go to college. I guarantee it.' Those words were so comforting to me."--Jennifer G., Parent
