Fayette selects Ethington as Outstanding Special Educator

Amber Ethington of Garrett Morgan Elementary is Fayette County’s Outstanding Special Educator for 2020. The Central Kentucky Educational Cooperative, which canceled its spring awards luncheon amid COVID-19 restrictions, recognized the recipients online in June.

Ethington has taught students with moderate/severe disabilities for six years, including two years previously at Julius Marks Elementary. “My goal for exceptional children is that they will live in a more inclusive world where they are pushed to their potential and achieve the unimaginable. These children can do anything as long as they are believed in,” she said.

A native of Versailles, Ethington attended the University of Kentucky where she earned a B.S. in Special Education MSD and a master’s degree in Special Education Teacher Leadership with an Autism Certificate. She is working on her certification as a board-certified behavior analyst.

Reading BINGO!

Try to spend at least 20 minutes reading each day this summer. Complete 20 or more reading tasks on the Summer Reading BINGO Card for a chance to win a prize! You can play two ways:

1. Use the BINGO card posted in your Library Google Classroom. When you complete a task, fill in the box online with a color of your choice. When you've completed 20 or more tasks, turn in the BINGO card through Google Classroom.

2. Print the BINGO card and have a guardian initial when you've completed a reading task. Turn the BINGO card in when we return to school.
