What can we get by reading this article "between the lines"? All these teachers have been recognized for outstanding achievement and they didn't take their prize and run off for more money, loftier positions, or to pad their resumes with their award to switch careers. They're still at Spann exhibiting their excellence in teaching, year after year. I personally know several of these outstanding educators and you couldn't ask for better roll models if you tried. Think your kids would get a better education in a "private" school? Think again if your children are going to Spann. It's the teachers that make the difference in Summerville!
