Show Notes
Happy holidays to our EdTalks listeners. While we are on a brief winter break, we thought that a terrific way to send 2025 off in style would be to rebroadcast our conversation with the 2025-26 Greenville County Schools Teacher of the Year, Morgan Smith. We hope that you carry some of Morgan's passion and positivity into the new year and beyond.
Meet Morgan Smith, the 2025-26 GCS Teacher of the Year. She discusses her 3rd-generation family legacy in the district, her "Spark" initiative to fight teacher burnout, and how she creates core memories for her 5th-grade students.
