Stephanie Pierce loves her Virtual Voyagers students and has spent 12 years creating engaging classrooms. When asked what her favorite lesson or unit is to teach, she said she loves reading stories with her students. "My favorite unit to teach in reading is the unit where stories teach us many lessons. Life is a consecutive learning lesson from accomplishments, mistakes, and experiences. I love hearing their experiences and lessons they learn. Thus, students learn from each other."
We love celebrating our teachers as they make so many positive impacts on our students! Through February 21, the district will continue celebrating our Teachers of the Year as we move towards the annual Teachers of the Year event hosted by the CMC Education Foundation.

"Over the past eight years of teaching, I`ve witnessed firsthand the adversity many of our students face," said Ms. Orillion. "What has resonated most deeply with me, however, is the universal desire for a sense of belonging. Whether it`s a student offering help to a classmate in need or assisting with daily tasks, their acts of kindness and support speak to a deeper truth: we all thrive when we feel seen, valued, and connected. Despite our diverse backgrounds, the students have shown me that belonging is not about similarity but about the willingness to meet each other where we are and lift one another up."

Joyce Bates has spent 24 years as an educator and currently teaches 3rd-grade at Carmel Elementary. "My students have taught me that the growth of a child is larger than a test score and should not be approached as a one-size-fits-all," says Ms. Bates. "Every child has a story, and I have to build a relationship to help each student meet his/her highest potential."

The following Point of Pride awards were presented by the School Board on Tuesday, December 17, 2024. CMCSS has made significant improvements on state standardized test scores and other accountability measures. We celebrate our schools that had the highest levels of performance in the state. CMCSS increased its number of Reward Schools from last year, with nearly a fifth of our schools earning this distinction for demonstrating high levels of performance and/or growth across all indicators. This accomplishment is truly a reflection of the excellent teaching and learning occurring in our schools, so we are excited to honor the many dedicated professionals, students, and families at these schools. Congratulations to our 23-24 Reward School recipients.

Katie Quinnan has been teaching for 15 years and teaches 5th grade at Carmel Elementary. As one of the school`s 2024-25 Teachers of the Year, Ms. Quinnan shares that she truly enjoys teaching students about writing. "Writing instruction is one thing that I always look forward to teaching. Not just the mechanics of writing but how it allows them to share their voice and perspectives on a topic. By guiding them to analyze texts and think critically, we get to see their unique ways of thinking as they develop and strengthen their writing skills," she said.

Katie Bush has taught for 11 years, spending her career in Special Education. "I have loved every year," she shared. "I’ve been in a self-contained setting, alternative school setting, and a resource/inclusion setting."
"The biggest thing I’ve learned from my students is that no matter what adversity they have faced in their young lives if they trust and know that you will never give up on them, they will THRIVE in so many ways," said Ms. Bush. "I love watching my students experience their `ah-ha` moments when they’ve realized they’ve mastered a goal or are able to solve a problem they didn’t think they could do. I love being their teacher and their biggest cheerleader! My students always know that I will support them, no matter what. ❤"

Angel Dominique has spent 21 years creating a positive impact on students. She spent 14 years in the classroom before becoming a librarian seven years ago. Now, she serves as a librarian at Northeast Elementary. Ms. Dominique`s favorite lesson is `book tasting.` She said, "I really enjoy having my students participate in a book tasting. This allows students to view a variety of books they may never choose to look at just by scanning the bookshelves. This also allows me to suggest titles to students from various genres."
