Georgia Future Educators Signing Day is held on Tuesday, May 2, 2023, during Teacher Appreciation Week. This endeavor is supported by the State School Superintendent’s Office, Division of Career, Technical and Agricultural Education (CTAE), Georgia Early Childhood Education Foundation (GECEF), and Georgia’s colleges and universities. The purpose of this day is to promote education as a career choice. We need to celebrate becoming an educator so that we can fill the needs of Georgia school systems.
Seniors in the class of 2023 across our state are participating in Georgia Future Educator Day where they will sign a commitment to one day become among the ranks of great teachers in our schools and in our history. Brooks County High School has three students that will pursue the profession.
Alysha Brown will be attending Wiregrass Technical College and then transfer to major in Early Childhood Education. She plans to be a Kindergarten teacher. Madison Rimes will attend Valdosta State University and transfer to UFM to major in Early Childhood Education. She plans to be teach Kindergarten and study to one day be a principal. Jeniah Wakefield will attend The Fort Valley State University to major in Elementary Education to become a Kindergarten or Elementary Art Teacher.
Each student signed a commitment to become a Georgia Educator. Family, friends, school and system educators were on hand to encourage them to continue their committment to education. We hope these young ladies will choose Brooks County Schools after completing their education. #CTAEdelivers #gaeducatorsigningday23 #gafutureeducator #bestofbrooks
