Edwards Congratulates Stonewall Tell School on Certification Initiative

Stonewall Tell Elementary School Principal Shannon Flounnory (left) and Teacher Dr. Elletta L. Bailey-Denson are congratulated by Commission Vice Chairman William “Bill” Edwards, District 7 (right), on making the school the only one in Georgia and one of three in the nation with 100 percent faculty participation in the “Take One” teacher certification program.

All 71 teachers, plus the principal and two assistant principals, will learn to achieve specific learning outcomes and adapt their teaching methods to the needs of individual students. It is the first of nine steps towards full teacher certification. Dr. Denson, the first African American in Georgia to be fully certified by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS), championed the effort and created a Take One professional development room in the school. Also shown are (from left) Commissioner Robb Pitts, District 5 Commissioner Emma I. Darnell and Chairman John H. Eaves. The school is at 3310 Stonewall Tell Road, College Park.
