Ann Brunk of Johnson High School has been teaching for 29 years. Her advice for teachers: “Always be aware that you’re learning from everything around you and everybody around you. My goal in my classroom is to do that for others.”
Teachers are more than educators, they are facilitators of life experiences. So observed Amanda Miliner, Georgia’s 2015 Teacher of the Year, on Monday at the Masters in Teaching, Life Changers at Work ceremony. The seventh annual event, presented by Brenau University East Campus at Featherbone Communiversity, honored nine area educators for being masters of their craft: Matthew Gruhn, Lakeview Academy; Robert Hunter, Riverside Military Academy; Cynthia Kinsey, New Holland Knowledge Academy; Martina Hewitt, Gainesville Exploration Academy; Lisa Mills, C.W. Davis Middle School; Ann Brunk, Johnson High School; Terri Greene, Lanier Technical College; Sheri Hardee, University of North Georgia; and Linda Kern, Brenau University.
