Let's celebrate Newton College & Career Academy Teacher of the Year, Ms. Taylor Moody! Ms. Moody has spent her entire 5-year teaching career with Newton County Schools, dedicating her passion and energy to shaping the minds of 11th and 12th graders at NCCA. As a teacher of AP Language and Composition and Multicultural Literature and Composition, she believes deeply in the transformative power of education, especially through literacy. Ms. Moody chose teaching because she wanted to show her students that reading and writing are gateways to endless opportunities and the foundation of critical thinking. But her aspirations went beyond academics; she strives to be a supportive and caring mentor who inspires students to reach their full potential and achieve their goals. What she loves most about teaching is witnessing her students grow, overcome challenges, and figure out their "why." For Ms. Moody, these moments reaffirm her own "why" and fuel her passion for education. Thank you, Ms. Moody, for your dedication to our students and for being a beacon of inspiration at NCCA. We are so proud to have you as part of the Newton County Schools family! #SpiritPrideExcellence

Today, we’re proud to honor Clements Middle School Teacher of the Year, Ms. Faith Parker! Ms. Parker has been with Newton County Schools for 4 years, dedicating her time to teaching Band and General Music to 6th-8th graders at Clements Middle School. Her passion for education is deeply rooted in her family's legacy, with many of her relatives serving as educators. Ms. Parker chose to couple her love for music with her desire to inspire the next generation, aiming to be the change she wants to see in the world.

These connections, built on trust and mutual respect, allow her to influence their development not only as musicians but as individuals. Knowing she’s played a role in helping her students reach their potential is one of the most rewarding aspects of her career.
