“Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude,” Ralph Marston once said. That axiom applies to each of the seven teachers, five support staff employees and one administrator honored by the Falls Church City School Board, last week, during a special reception and recognition program at Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School.
The teachers were nominees for the Washington Post Agnes Meyer Outstanding Teacher Award, and the support staff members were nominees for the FCCPS Support Employee of the Year Award.
Thomas Jefferson Elementary principal Trudy Taylor was honored for being selected as a Distinguished Educational Leader by the Washington Post earlier this year.
TJ third grade teacher Jed Frei was selected to receive the Agnes Meyer award. TJ aide, Kathy Poff was selected to receive the FCCPS Support Employee of the Year Award. All nominees received plaques and the winners received cash awards.
Delegate Jim Scott was also on hand to present the winners with recognition certificates from the Virginia General Assembly.
