CANA – Leesa Moxley Ayers, the 2016 Carroll County Teacher of the Year, was surprised in her second grade classroom at St. Paul School on Dec. 8.
Ayers, who was understandably confused when a group of school board members and school staff showed up at her classroom that afternoon, was overjoyed and excited to receive the honor.
“Oh my gosh, oh thank you, oh my goodness,” were the sentiments Ayers kept repeating as Carroll County Schools Superintendent Dr. Strader Blankenship presented her with flowers and the award.
