Westmoreland

Stephanie Westmoreland got a job working for Georgia College! She is Program Coordinator and will coordinate programs such as Kids University. We're so excited that she will be around! Maybe she can drop in and work with Lyndsay sometimes!

Marissa's cool job

Marissa Abbott
Putnam County Achievement Academy
Eatonton
"We are housed in the mobile units directly behind the middle school/former high school. Half of our students will be there as a result of punitive action. The others, known as Achievement Learners, are behind in credits and attend as part of a credit recovery. They may choose to attend the academy when the regular classroom is not working for them. We certainly don't want to lose these kids as part of the drop out rate. As of now, we will have 22 students in all at the academy ranging from middle to high school. All courses are webbased using Odyssey Software. However, I will be expected to help the students step out of the box and create an active learning environment. This semester I will be teaching Language Arts and Science. Next semester Brandon and I may choose to switch subjects and I would teach History and Math."

Great news!

And Matthew Clements reported that he is going to be teaching special education courses at Washington County High School. Yea!
