Please join us in congratulating our Top 5 Finalists for the 2026–2027 Glynn County Teacher of the Year! 🌟
This morning, Director of Human Resources Stephen Brooks visited schools across our district to deliver the exciting news to our finalists and their principals. Whether they were surprised right in their classrooms or reached by phone while off campus, it was the absolute best way to start a Friday.
Alphabetically by last name, our district finalists are:
Jessica Andrews – Risley Middle School
Stacy Davis – Glyndale Elementary School
Dani Morton – FACES
Josh Veal – Glynn Academy
Gena Wynn – Brunswick High School
To ensure a standard of fairness, our selection process relies on an independent panel of expert judges—all retired educators who understand the dedication required in the classroom. Each judge carefully evaluates applications and reference letters through a complete blind review process. Every identifying detail, including candidate names, grade levels, subjects, and school locations, is fully redacted before evaluation. Being selected as a top candidate through this rigorous process speaks volumes about these educators' exceptional impact on our students.
Our overall District Teacher of the Year will be announced on October 20th during a special celebration honoring all of our Teachers and Staff of the Year. We look forward to sharing the big announcement with our entire community following the event!
