The Georgia Independent School Association (GISA) recently named four Wesleyan School faculty members GISA Master Teachers.
After completing a comprehensive application process through GISA this past spring, the following teachers were honored:
- Juliette Ball, lower school lead teacher;
- Paige Glass, lower school lead teacher;
- Suzanne Ragains, a high school modern and classical languages teacher and
- Laura Riester, middle school math teacher.
To be accepted into GISA’s Master Teacher program, candidates must submit a portfolio featuring three examples of outstanding work related to the classroom and collaborating with other educators.
The final part of the application is an unedited video of the candidate’s classroom teaching as well as five letters of recommendation from colleagues, administrators, parents and students.
“We are delighted that GISA has acknowledged the hard work of these committed educators through the Master Teacher program,” said Chris Cleveland, Wesleyan Head of School.
“Juliette, Paige, Suzanne, and Laura are outstanding classroom teachers and have been impacting the lives of Wesleyan students for many years. They are each deserving of this honor.”
