Mr. Schism at PCHS, he was a wonderful teacher who truly cared about all his students. I still have the letter he wrote to each of his classes where he addressed every single student and remember when he was willing to pick up any students on prom night who were in an uncomfortable situation or needed a safe ride home. So glad I got to attend his retirement party and I hope he’s doing awesome

Miss Martha Justice !! She made learning so much fun. Was just one of the best! Got me interested in the Holocaust in 7th grade! She didn’t play either I wouldn’t try her lol. She was also my favorite Spec’s employee.
Elizabeth Wojciechowicz
My 5th grade gifted teacher at Walden Lake Elementary, Ms Keeler. I’m in my 30s and still remember the way she made me feel; Smart, Purposeful, strong! My love of writing came from her. She never saw all the imperfections I felt and not only did she make me feel important, she made my mother feel proud of her parenting. She fostered my love of Harry Potter and reading while steering my strong, independent personality in a positive direction. What a difference she made.

I’ve encountered so many teachers through elementary – college, that it’s hard to just choose one but if I had too it would be Gina Petty Sanders. My Spanish teacher in high school but most importantly my “ Tia” ! After highschool through college, she always checked up on me to see how “ Cali “ was doing. We’ve been in close contact ever since and I will always cherish our moments together.

Tina Garrett Hauser
I’ve had too many good ones to choose a favorite. Two of my top favorites have passed on (Tim Cribbs & Stacy delcastillo). Mr. Lynch, my high school chemistry teacher probably could see I always struggled with math but never ran out of patience with me. For that reason chemistry has always been one of my favorite fields of science to study! Mrs. Mareda Hewlett Westerman also started my love of learning the language of Spanish! I’ve had so many good & caring teachers over the years!
Haley Francis

Mrs Whitehurst at Bryan elementary in the 80’s. She was a wonderful teacher
Wendi Haney
I was fortunate enough to have had some really great teachers. In fact, I never had a bad one. Narrowing it down is absolutely impossible. But the one’s that have a voice in my head everyday are Ms. Joy Trask, Mr. David Knox, Mrs. Mary Diggs, Mrs. Brenda Gibbs, Mrs. Charlotte Lehman, and the incomparable Mrs. Pat Bishop. These people changed my life.
