This experience has been nothing short of amazing but the highlight has been connecting with other TOTYs and finalists from all across the state. We came into this cohort as strangers and now we are life-long friends. I am infinitely inspired by Georgia's teachers 🍑 #gatoty24
The 2024 Runner-Up is Vanessa Ellis, an eighth-grade social studies teacher at Veterans Memorial Middle School in the Muscogee County School District.

Change is hard. Not because people think change is unnecessary, but because they are unsure what change will bring. @DavidFrangiosa @GBGEdu #growbeyondgrades
