Fall has arrived in McLeod Garden
The memorial garden for Dr. Hugh McLeod, generously donated by his wife Leslie and his daughter Lauren, has been getting some TLC. Over the summer the large columns were pressured washed, and our landscaper has been trimming and weeding. A new memorial plaque was install and some fall foliage has been planted in the two main pots at the entrance to the garden. This garden, located behind the cafe, is used by many students to take a much needed respite, study for tests, catch up with a friend, or enjoy a sunny day. Thanks to Jennifer Labarthe for her time and talent helping the Foundation to make the garden a place for all to enjoy.
Foundation Spotlight: Ashley Nickell
This year the Walton High School Foundation is pleased to support the salaries of two staff members. Ashley Nickell is Walton’s newest English teacher, and a Walton graduate. Let her introduce herself:
“My name is Ashley Nickell. Having earned my college degree in marketing and management and working in the recruiting technology field, I pursued my passion for teaching earning my Masters in the Art of Teaching and a secondary Bachelor of Arts in English. I have been teaching high school English for the past 11 years, most recently teaching in South Forsyth High School. I love helping students gain more analytical skills and improving their writing techniques. I look forward to creating strong students on the 9th and 10th grade English teams. I am so excited to be a Raider (again) as my husband and I both graduated from Walton High School!”
