RHHS Welcomes Students to the World of Reading
In an inspiring and educational event, Randolph-Henry High School welcomed elementary students from across Charlotte County on October 18, 2023, for the highly-anticipated Charlotte County Public Schools Book Festival. The festival featured a variety of literary stations, captivating guest speaker Tim Young, and an impressive team of 'Teachers for Tomorrow' students who served as ambassadors for the event.
A Celebration of Reading and Learning
The Charlotte County Public Schools Book Festival brought together young readers from various elementary schools to celebrate the joy of reading and explore the world of literature. Randolph-Henry High School was the perfect setting for this event, providing ample space and resources to create an immersive literary experience where older students could mentor younger students.
Guest Speaker Tim Young Inspires All
The highlight of the festival was the guest speaker, Tim Young, whose dynamic and engaging presentation left a lasting impact on all who attended. Young, an accomplished author, illustrator, toy maker, and storyteller, shared his love for literature and spoke about the importance of reading in one's personal growth. His inspirational talk motivated students to explore the world of books and expand their imaginations.
Literary Stations Abound
The festival was abuzz with literary stations set up throughout the school, offering a wide range of activities and opportunities for students to dive into the world of books. From interactive storytelling sessions, a camp-out on the front lawn, and even readers' theater, there was something for every young reader to enjoy. The literary stations encouraged students to explore different genres and foster a lifelong love of reading.
Teachers for Tomorrow Students Shine
The 'Teachers for Tomorrow' students at Randolph-Henry High School played a vital role in the success of the festival. They served as event ambassadors, guiding and assisting the visiting elementary students. This experience provided the aspiring educators with hands-on opportunities to engage with younger learners and share their passion for teaching.
The Charlotte County Public Schools Book Festival at Randolph-Henry High School was a celebration of literacy and learning. It showcased the power of literature to inspire and educate young minds while fostering a sense of community within the school district. RHHS would like to thank our School Board Office for supporting this event and the many staff members across the division who collaborated to make this festival happen for our elementary students.
Charlotte County Public Schools remains committed to providing enriching educational experiences and nurturing the love of learning within its community. The Book Festival was a testament to the county's dedication to education beyond the classroom.
CCPS Innovative Teachers
September 2023
Bacon District Elementary
Principal: Mrs. Anne Snead
Bacon District Elementary School’s Innovative Teacher for September is Mrs. Kate Davis. Mrs. Davis is a veteran teacher at Bacon; however, she is constantly developing ways to improve as a teacher so that her students can grow into critical thinkers.
Mrs. Davis is a phenomenal math teacher as evidenced by her students’ math SOL scores. However, she is focused on more than scores; she wants students to think about the way numbers work. One recent lesson included teaching math without using numbers! She offered students a challenging project where they partnered with each other to get the work done. Mrs. Davis’s students did not mind the challenge; they weren’t upset when they were initially unsuccessful and had to start the process over. The students were challenged, fully engaged, and ready to try this math lesson…without numbers! This is the definition of innovation: introducing new ideas, trying new methods, and creative thinking. I was just as engaged as the students! Congratulations Mrs. Davis!
Central Middle School
Principal: Mrs. Jessica Pillow
Asst. Principal: Mrs. Pamela Archer
Mr. Collins is the 8th-grade Civics teacher at CMS. Mr. Collins and all of the CMS staff were challenged to make the 1st week of the 2023-24 school year a time for connection, creativity, and exploration. Mr. Collins did just that in his Jack and the Beanstalk lesson. He had his Civics students explore the elements of the judicial system by creating a mock trial for the famous "Jack" from the fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk. This creative and hands-on lesson allowed students to see the courts come to life. The students had fun getting to know some of the components of Civics while remembering a fairy tale from the past!
Congratulations to Mr. Collins!
Eureka Elementary
Principal: Mr. Brian Hamilton
Asst. Mrs. Ashley Overstreet
Eureka’s Innovative Teacher for August/September is Mr. Heath Drinkard. Mr. Drinkard is in his 4th year of teaching PE at Eureka. He has worked hard during this time to develop his PE program to better meet the needs of his students. Since he typically has anywhere from 50 to 80 students during his PE classes, Mr. Drinkard decided to reallocate his resources so he could provide more instruction for his students. Rather than meeting with all of the PE students for a grade level every day, Mr. Drinkard has divided grade levels into three classes. The entire grade level meets together on Monday and Friday. On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, Mr. Drinkard meets with a different group each day while the other two groups work with the PE paraprofessionals. Mr. Drinkard uses this time with the smaller group to emphasize the importance of health and fitness to students and to work with students on learning rules to new and different games while also having more of an opportunity to play the games with the smaller group. This change has resulted in more student engagement which has also resulted in fewer behavioral issues during PE. The change is also allowing Mr. Drinkard to teach some games and skills that would not be possible with the entire grade level present. The changes Mr. Drinkard has made have been positive and have improved health and Physical Education instruction for students at Eureka. Please join me in thanking Mr. Drinkard for his continued dedication to our school and students and in congratulating him on being recognized as the Innovative Teacher for August and September!
Phenix Elementary
Principal: Mr. Danny Richardson
Like many educators, Mrs. Driskill quietly and unobtrusively goes about the business of teaching and helping.

Her commitment to staying abreast of the latest educational technology and instructional trends ensures that her students are well-prepared for the digital age. Mrs. Driskill’s unwavering passion for enhancing the educational journey through solid instruction and the implementation of technology makes her a deserving recipient of the Phenix Innovative Teacher Award for September.
Randolph-Henry High School
Principal: Mrs. Erin Davis
Asst. Principal: Mrs. Mary Jane Cook
Asst. Principal: Mr. Christopher Holt
Randolph-Henry High School would like to recognize Mrs. Zilke Greenland as the innovative teacher for September. Mrs. Greenland is a new teacher this year at RHHS, specializing in Anatomy and Physiology. Mrs. Greeland has a kind and compassionate demeanor but commands her students' attention through a variety of hands-on activities. Her students put their skills to use by creating models and drawings of what they are learning in class. Recently, her students learned about the various types of muscles in the human body. Students examined these muscles through a microscope and made illustrations that highlight the differences in these muscle groups. To conclude this unit, she took students outside to participate in a muscle training activity on the front lawn led by Kari Joyner. We commend Mrs. Greenland for her efforts to make learning fun.
