April Teacher of the Month<br />
Lauren Green by Brittany Agee<br />
Ms. Green grew up in Princeton, West Virginia. She graduated at Concord University in<br />
2005 with a Bachelors Degree in Studio Art and Art Education K-12. She has taught four years at<br />
<strong>Giles</strong> teaching Art 1 and Exploratory Art 8. Her greatest challenge is to inspire students to<br />
believe in themselves and their artistic abilities. Ms. Green also tries to motivate students and<br />
keep them excited and confident about their projects and the class itself.<br />
May Teacher of the Month<br />
Babette Martin by Marti Williams<br />
SAE (Students Active in Education) have chosen the May teacher of the month to<br />
be Mrs. Martin, our favorite Algebra teacher. After 24 years of teaching it is safe to say<br />
that this honor is well deserved. Mrs. Martin has devoted countless hours to helping her<br />
students understand one of the hardest high school subjects, math. In addition to her<br />
before school tutoring she also helps out with Prom, organizes the GHS relay for life<br />
fundraiser, and serves as the Math Department Chair person. When asked what her<br />
favorite part of teaching is, she told us, “I really enjoy watching the students mature and<br />
grow into young adults from 8th graders to 12th graders. I also love the challenge<br />
of helping students see that they are in control of their education and their future<br />
and how Math is going to be an important part of the rest of their life!” Well said<br />
Mrs. Martin, keep up that awesome teaching!
