Teachers of Year Honored
One works with special needs students, the other with at-risk students. Anthony
Goss works for the Kern County Superintendent of Schools, Whitney Weddell for
Nueva Continuation High School. They are two teachers dedicated to quality education.
But they are more. Goss and Weddell were honored as the cream of the crop of their
chosen profession -- selected as the 2006-07 Kern County Teachers of the Year
during a reception ceremony at the Kern County Museum on May 16. Another deserving educator, Karen Reyes, a kindergarten teacher at Princeton Street
School in Delano was named alternate. Goss and Weddell will now represent the
county in the California Teacher of the Year competition. The California Department
of Education (CDE) sponsors the annual California Teacher of the Year program. The three were among 34 county teachers who had been nominated for the honor by
their schools and districts. More
