Teacher Spotlight: Allison McCabe. Mrs. McCabe has taught for 16 years with the last four years being at Galatia Grade School as a 2nd grade teacher. Mrs. McCabe had this to say about working for Galatia Schools: "I was born and raised here in Galatia. My kids are the 4th generation in my family to attend here. This little school means a lot to me. I am blessed to be able to be a part of this school. My favorite part of being here is the strong sense of community our school has. We are small and we are able to offer something larger districts cannot. It feels like a family here. I work with some amazing people. The kids here in Galatia are great and I am thankful every day that I get the opportunity to be a part of this district." Mrs. McCabe's coworkers had this to say: "Mrs. McCabe is a great co-worker and teacher. She is always willing to help. As a teacher she is always up for trying new things and putting in the extra work. She will try many different avenues to help a student feel successful. I hope everyone has a friend/coworker like her in their corner." We asked her some interesting questions: Question: What is something unique about you (a fun fact) that few people are aware of? Response: I can wiggle my ears. Question: Where on earth are you hoping to travel next? Response: Somewhere warm with an ocean, sunshine, and sand. Thank you Mrs. McCabe for all your hard work!

Staff Spotlight: Heather Anderson. Mrs. Heather has worked for Galatia Schools for 5 years. She has served as a Personal Aide, Title Aide, and currently as the District Technology Coordinator. Mrs. Heather has this to say about working for Galatia Schools: "I love being a part of a team that is here for the students and their success. Galatia School District is second to none!" Mrs. Heather's coworkers had this to say: "She has such a wonderful personality that is very contagious. There is no way anyone can be down or upset when she is around. She has always been incredibly helpful when I have a question or problem. I’ve seen her wear so many different “hats” and transition from one to the other without any complaints and always with a smile on her face." We asked her some interesting questions: Question: What would you eat if you had to eat only one meal every day for the rest of your life? Response: Definitely Biscuits and Gravy, nothing else compares! Question: Which do you prefer: flying automobiles, robot housekeepers, or lunar cities? Response: Robot housekeepers for sure! Especially one that does laundry. Wash, dry, fold, put away and repeat! Thank you Mrs. Heather for all your hard work!
