Colleagues at CHAPEL HILL ISD used a district recognition moment to praise Miss Anthony and mark her nomination for Teacher of the Year.
A first-year teacher said Miss Anthony helped shape their early career, calling her "the little reason why I am the teacher I am" and adding, "She has saved my **** I don't know how many times." That speaker said Miss Anthony welcomed them "with open arms," supplied resources and provided daily guidance that improved their teaching.
A peer from the health science department congratulated Miss Anthony on the nomination, saying she "deserves more than teacher of the year" and calling her "teacher of the century for me." A CTE department colleague described Miss Anthony as a longtime, vital member of the Career and Technical Education department who has worked to prepare students for the industry-based certification (IBC).
The remarks combined admiration for Miss Anthony's mentorship of colleagues with praise for her work preparing students for careers. Colleagues noted her responsiveness to staff questions and her role in supporting both instruction and student certification efforts.
No formal vote or further administrative action on the nomination is recorded in the transcript.
