Fox 8 picks a teacher or administrator each week throughout the school year as a weekly winner based on nominations. One of those weeks happened to be Old Richmond's very own, Kate Waterman!

Old Richmond students spent Tuesday morning sharing their knowledge of farming during their animal museum project.
Students dressed in farm animal costumes and presented animal facts they've learned in class to visitors. There were also booths dedicated to farm fresh foods and textiles that emphasized how important farms are to the economy. Visitors were able to buy farm animal-inspired student artwork from the museum gift shop, with proceeds going to benefit real animals at Friends of Stokes Shelter and real farmers in Western North Carolina whose farms were impacted by Hurricane Helene.
Thanks for sharing, Old Richmond!
