We are so excited to annouce our 2020-2021 Teacher of the Year - Ms. Ajah Thomas! In a year full of so many unknowns, social-emotional and health needs, and all around transformation of education as we know it, Ms. Thomas has stepped up to lead Wedgwood staff and students to greatness. Her leadership within the science department- both internally of the school, and externally across the district, has supported other teachers with strategies to maintain the rigor of high-quality science instruction, even in a virtual setting. When you enter Ms. Thomas’ virtual classroom, you will see students with cameras on, the chat box full, and hands-on activities occurring in students' homes around the community. She uses videos, polls, discussion boards, games, and interactive tools to ensure students stay engaged in learning and master 6th grade science skills. Wedgwood is so lucky to have Ms. Thomas part of our team! Congrats, Ms. Thomas! #Wedgwoodstrong
