South Carolina Teacher of the Year 2021, Sarah Gams...We ARE Lucky to Have You!
Anderson School District One is "lucky" to have an amazing group of Induction teachers! March 17, Sarah Gams, 2021 SC Teacher of the Year, spoke with these early-career educators. She shared words of wisdom, stories from her classroom, and offered encouragement. We are "lucky" to have Sarah on staff at CERRA this year and we know the Anderson School District One teachers were "lucky" to hear from her!

CERRA’s Teacher Leadership Program resonated with me in an in-depth manner. I was honored and fortunate to attend the SC Teacher Forum Conference in Myrtle Beach. Through conversations and discussions concerning leadership with fellow South Carolina District Teachers of the Year, I have defined leadership for my authentic self. One must define leadership according to the talents and gifts he or she possesses to promote excellence in education.

The SC Teacher Forum Conference, for me, was a time of connecting, learning, renewing, and making new friends! I was treated as a professional and realized we are all leaders in our own way.
