2010-11 Teachers of the Year Recognized
Posted on Friday, March 12 @ 14:05:20 CST by aline

OPSB News Ouachita Parish Schools proudly announce parish finalists in the 2010-2011 Teacher of the Year Awards program:

Chantay Johnson, Elementary Teacher of the Year
Diane Roberts, Middle School Teacher of the Year
Maria ‘Marty’ Bumgart, High School Teacher of the Year

The parish recognized all thirty-six Teachers of the Year in a luncheon where announcements were made of the three finalists who will represent the parish in the next phase of competition vying for Region VIII Teacher of the Year titles. In addition, the ‘Top Five Contenders’ were recognized at the elementary level.

Teachers underwent a stringent interview process for the parish award which mirrors the state’s program for selecting Louisiana Teachers of the Year. After completing a twelve-page application packet consisting of narrative style Q & A, the teachers presented speeches and interviewed before a panel of judges including peers, past winners, parents, and community leaders. Every panel member expressed the difficulty in choosing only one teacher at each level from the many wonderful, deserving, highly-qualified applicants.

Diane is an 8th grade Language Arts teacher at Ouachita Junior High. She has been teaching for 5 years, 2 in Ouachita Parish.

Marty teaches grade 10 English at Sterlington High School. She has taught in the district for 9 years.
