JEFFERSON COUNTY — Eight area Jefferson County Schools teachers have been honored as Second Mile Teachers by their peers.
The awards go to teachers at each Jefferson County school, recognizing them as the teacher who would be the most missed were he or she not to return the next school year.
The award at Chalkville Elementary School went to exceptional education teacher Christa Head. Clay Elementary School counselor Mandi Evans won for her school. Brittney Bullard, a sixth grade reading and language teacher, won at Clay-Chalkville Middle School and Rod Paris won at Clay-Chalkville High School.
