Aynor Elementary School first-grade teacher Ashley Poston said she wasnât sure what to do when her administration and her own first-grade daughter came bursting into her classroom a few weeks ago.
âThey announced it over the loudspeaker and my principal, two curriculum coaches and the assistant principal came in with flowers and candy,â Poston said. â[My daughter] came running in here, my students ⦠they all cheered and were clapping.â
Poston was named as the 2020-2021 Teacher of the Year for AES.
â[She] is most deserving of this honor. She lives and breathes enthusiasm for her students and teaching,â said AES Principal Reggie Gasque. âStudents and their parents LOVE Mrs. Poston! She is an innovative and insightful teacher that continuously seeks knowledge and new methodology that will ensure her students success.â
