On
Monday, September 30, 2019, Board members, district officials, school staff and
students gathered at Esther F. Garrison School for the Arts to raise
the Flag of Learning and Liberty. The ceremony symbolizes the importance of
quality education and represents teachers who contribute to the betterment of
our community through stellar teaching practices.
The
flag will fly over Garrison School for the Arts throughout this school year in
honor of Kathy Whitney, the current Savannah-Chatham Teacher of the Year. Mrs. Whitney teaches Gifted Students at
Garrison K8. She is a graduate of Savannah High
School and Armstrong Atlantic State University where she earned her Bachelor of
Arts in English in 1992 and her master’s degree in Early Childhood Education in
2003.
