The Baldwin County School District announces the successful completion of a year-long Teacher Policy Fellowship by Brittany Nichols, Lakeview Primary's Teacher of the Year for 2023.
Over the past year, Nichols has been collaborating with educators from across the state, including the 2023 Georgia Teacher of the Year, Michael Kobito. Their collective efforts have centered around the vital areas of teacher recruitment and retention, with the ultimate goal of fortifying the educational landscape.
Reflecting on her transformative experience, Nichols shared her enthusiasm for stepping out of her comfort zone.
"The GaDOE created a policy fellowship to hear teachers' voices. It was amazing to work with other incredible educators for the year to discuss ways we can strengthen the educational field. We presented our final projects today and shared many great ideas. I hate to see the end come but I know there will continue to be great work coming from these amazing people," she said.
