Mrs. Gee chose to pass the I-CARE torch to Mrs. Marianna Gibson, here are some of the reasons why she chose to nominate her:
In addition to genuinely caring about her students and designing lessons that meet their needs, Mrs. Gibson is a wonderful colleague. Mrs. Gibson regularly contributes to her team and department by volunteering to help in any way possible, whether that is ordering supplies, creating assessments, or decorating a bulletin board. All of this makes Mrs. Gibson an excellent choice to carry the I-CARE torch.
Mrs. Hardin and her class would like to thank Kim Gordon, Regional Educator at Salon Matrix and Tanya Paul, owner of Salon Solutions Under the Bridge for the donation of mannequin heads for the BCCCA Cosmetology program.
Your generosity is very much appreciated. Thank you again!
