Searcy School District received exciting news this week! Wilbur D. Mills Education Service Cooperative held a “Teacher Tip” contest, and three Searcy School District teachers earned top spots with one being named the Grand Champion! During this very unique time in education, teachers are overwhelmed learning new techniques to assist both onsite and remote learners. These tips are practices our teachers have found useful and want to share with others across the educational field. It is our honor to recognize Southwest Middle School teacher Jamie Taylor as the Grand Champion for the entire contest! Ahlf Junior High School science teacher Kyla Glasser took the first place position for the Grades 7-9 category, and Lauren Taylor earned the second place slot in the Grades 10-12 category. All three Searcy School District secondary schools are represented! Congratulations to each of these teachers for their honor. Below are the videos each submitted and a description of the prizes they were awarded for their achievement.
