Congratulations to Matthew Cotton and Elizabeth Pulley, for being selected as teacher of the year and ESP of the year. Matthew Cotton teaches 6-12 science at the Walton In”10”sity School of Excellence. He began his career in Walton County as a paraprofessional and after earning his degree from the University of West Florida, earned the position of science instructor at the Magnet program. He has been instrumental at developing our school based behavior program via LiveSchool and mentoring teachers with various forms of virtual learning.

Walton High School was “The Place To Be” last night as some of the brightest and well rounded students in the WORLD put to competition their Academic Knowledge displayed and put to test at our Academic Team Meet!  Wow…..Is an understatement of what these students know, have learned, and are able to supply under the pressure of a time clock/limit, in the presence of their peers, teachers and viewed by parents through technology.  EPIC may not give justice to the level of awesomeness these students exemplify in this setting.  Thanks teachers and sponsors for making it happen for these students; times that will forever be treasured even during the challenges of a pandemic!

Maude Saunders is proud to announce our 2020-2021 Teacher of the Year, Mrs. Kris Ascetta and our ESP of the Year, Mrs. Roslyn Chatman.  Mrs. Ascetta has taught first grade at MSE for two years and currently serves as the grade level chairperson.  Mrs. Chatman supports the staff and students at MSE daily as she works with students and teachers across grade levels.  Congratulations, Mrs. Ascetta and Mrs. Chatman!

Mossy Head School Teacher and ESP of the Year

Mossy Head School would like to announce and congratulate our Teacher of the Year, Ms. Leslie Coone, and our ESP of the year, Ms. Carolyn Ingram.  Ms. Coone is a veteran teacher who continues to develop her instructional methods in order to create a positive, energetic, and yet academic centered classroom. She not only supports in her class, but also supports students and staff school wide. She has played an important role in the development of MHS's House System over the last few years, especially in acquiring the RCA House app for our school this year.

Ms. Ingram always has a smile and offers a helping hand to anyone in need. She not only helps provide healthy meals for MHS students, but also takes time to get to know students and build relationships with them. The care and concern she shows for others helps individual students and supports Mossy Head School's overall goal to create a positive learning environment. Thank you and congratulations to you both, Ms. Coone and Ms. Ingram!
