Mrs. Lashley was voted UCEC Teacher of the Year. She was chosen by her fellow teachers who all enjoy working with her. Mrs. Lashley has taught English at UCEC for 7 years, but has also taught at other UCPS schools, and in Florida. She absolutely loves Shakespeare, working with the best faculty/staff, and teaching the best students ever at UCEC. She is a great teacher who educates in such a way that you are left understanding the assignment inside and out. As one of her students shared, “she is one of the best English teachers I have ever had.”

Here is what Mrs. Lashley said about the award, “UCEC is a special school, and being selected teacher of the year by a group of such phenomenal people is an honor that I do not take lightly. The recognition feels like smiles and hugs from family. I am humbled, honored, and grateful.”
