BYRON, Ga. — Callie Kendrick teaches sixth, seventh, and eighth grade agriculture at Byron Middle School.
She has been teaching for five years, with three of them at Byron.
She says her favorite part about teaching is being able to instill in her students just how important agriculture is, and being able to be a part of the school's FFA (Future Farmers of America).
"Advising an amazing FFA chapter and seeing how the organization changes lives," Kendrick said, describing why she loves her role at school.
Jerny Mazur wrote in about her awesome teacher, and she says that it's always a joy to go into her classroom.
"She is always welcoming us with a smile, even when she's not having a good day. She always makes her students feel special," Mazur said.
Mazur went on to say how Mrs. Kendrick helps her students when she needs it, and that Kendrick is a model teacher
"I think the world needs more kind, happy, and caring teachers like her," Mazur wrote.
