I was so proud to stand by Haley Patterson as she responded so articulately, so eloquently, and with such heart to questions as she was recognized at the Exchange Club today. She is Armuchee's 2014 Star Student and was honored with Star Students and Star Teachers from each of the high schools in Floyd County.

I am overwhelmed, touched, and amazed that she chose her old fourth grade teacher as her "Star" teacher. I hope I am deserving of some small portion of the words she spoke there and at the presentation at the school earlier this morning.

What an outstanding young woman. Y'all keep your eye on her!

From Carla Bynam's Facebook:

Today's AHS and Rome/Floyd County STAR Student & Teacher recognitions... What a blessing it has been to have an educator like Terrell Shaw make such an impact on Haley's life, starting when she was his student in 4th grade, and continuing today as a member of the Trinity UMC Rome congregation. As Haley noted during today's recognition at the Exchange Club of Rome, she wants to be an educator, in large part because of the influence of Mr. Shaw, and others like him. Thanks, also, to those involved in organizing these recognitions, which not only celebrate student success, but also honor the teachers who helped make that success a reality.
