QLE Teacher Holly Slay Named Extraordinary Educator!

Holly Slay

Congratulations to QUE 3rd Grade Teacher, Holly Slay! Mrs. Slay has been recognized as an 'Extraordinary Educator' by Curriculum Associates—a prestigious honor awarded to a select group of outstanding teachers across the state and nation.

To earn this distinction, educators must meet rigorous criteria and undergo a thorough evaluation process. Mrs. Slay is one of only 30 educators in the U.S. and 4 in Mississippi to receive this honor.

Mrs. Slay said, “My motto is ‘Let the data lead the way.’ Using insights from i-Ready, I can tailor my teaching strategies to address specific student needs and support their growth effectively.”

QUE Principal Kristen Schrimpshire gathered students and faculty for a special ceremony to celebrate this remarkable achievement. It was obvious that students, teachers, and administration are proud to have such a dedicated and inspiring educator at QUE!
