Congratulations to Graniteville’s Remarkable Teacher of the Month for October, Mrs. Victoria Richards.

Mrs. Richards’ passion for teaching art is apparent as you walk down the hallways of GVES. She has spent endless hours creating lessons, preparing materials, and displaying student work. She has gone above and beyond to make art enjoyable for every student. This is what makes her Jim Rooney’s Remarkable Teacher of the Month for October.
