York
County School Division (YCSD) administrators, members of the York Foundation
for Public Education, and representatives from TowneBank surprised three
teachers in their classrooms as they announced the finalists for the YCSD TowneBank
Teacher of the Year. Congratulations to Tracy Buckley (Mt. Vernon Elementary
School), Elizabeth O’Brien (Yorktown Middle School), and Lyndsay Kimbro (Bruton
High School). The
Teacher of the Year prize patrol, sponsored by TowneBank, included
Superintendent Victor Shandor, Chief Academic Officer Stephanie Guy, Education
Foundation board members Larry and Cathy Cheney, TowneBank President Brian
Skinner and TowneBank Vice-President Sandra Allen. The three
finalists, one for each level, were chosen from among the nineteen teachers
named as their individual school’s teacher of the year. A selection panel,
comprised of teachers and school administrators, will interview the finalists
before selecting the division teacher of the year. The finalists and the
school-based teachers of the year will be honored at the division’s employee
recognition banquet in May.
