Teacher Mentor Appreciation



As students relax for the summer, many teachers are already preparing for next school year.

High school students in Paulding County Schools have the opportunity to take "Teaching as a Profession" pathway, if they are interested in pursuing a teaching career in the future.

In the third course of the pathway, students participate in a year-long practicum with a teacher in one of our schools.

A reception was held on May 5th as an appreciation for their mentors.

All of the mentors dedicated themselves to enlightening the students in all areas of education. South Paulding High School's Culinary Arts program catered the event with a Cinco de Mayo theme.

Makenzie Anderson (student) and Nikki Belmore (Dugan teacher mentor)

We wish all of our pathway students good luck in their future career aspirations!
