"Pre-K can be so scary for little kiddos just starting school, but also for parents! Mrs. Whatley has done such an amazing job providing the care and compassion necessary to make this first year of school feel like a breeze. My girl will come home and say, “Mrs. Whatley is my best friend!” We love her!"
"Mrs. Holcomb not only goes above and beyond for her students, but for her team mates as well! She is patient, kind, and works hard to ensure all students in her classroom are heard, loved, and learning! She truly sparkles and shines!"
"Mrs. Stark has been extremely pleasant and helpful to me as a parent! I have a student that needs significant help. She has been extremely helpful in a difficult situation."
"Mr. O helped me so much when it came to studying for his tests. He is awesome! He always makes my day better just by existing and being himself!"
"Coach McCullah is not just a great teacher who tries his best for his students, but he is an amazing person. He is great with his students and tries new things to help his students understand the topic that they are learning in his class. He teaches higher-level courses that take a lot of time and dedication to prepare for. On top of all the planning and prep, he also makes time to build relationships with his students and athletes. He always says he would love for his students to love biology or anatomy, but his main goal is to teach them how to be good men and women. He expects a lot out of his students and athletes because he believes in them and knows what they are capable of. He loves his students and athletes like they are his own kids." #GoLiberators #LiberatorsLead #GOCSD #BeTheLight
