Miller Recognized as Wal-Mart District Teacher of the Year


web posted September 30, 2008
JOHNSTON – On September 23 a grand announcement was made at Johnston Elementary School. Mrs. Tyra Miller was recognized as a Walmart District Teacher of the Year. This honor came from the nomination made by Mr. Billy Bledsoe, a driver for the Walmart Company. Mr. Bledsoe recognized Mrs. Miller for her outstanding educational qualities because she was a teacher of one of his daughters, and a mentor for his other daughter who now teachers at Johnston Elementary.
   
“The program honors teachers who inspire their students to reach the highest levels in the country today,” said Mark Barnes, Human Resource Manager for Transportation for the Laurens District. He continued his presentation speaking to faculty members and students at Johnston Elementary stating that a teacher has the ability to light a park in a student that will one day make them a leader in our country.
   
Mr. Barnes spoke in reference to the nomination of Mrs. Miller, “This teacher cares about her students, is dedicated to the success of her students and works hard to see that they are successful. She also cares about her community and a support of her community.”
   
The title of District Walmart Teacher of the Year brought a check for $1,000.00 to Johnston Elementary in honor of Mrs. Miller.  Mrs. Miller was presented with a $100.00 gift card for her to use.
