The Miller Media Group and Tradewind Energy are co-sponsoring a weekly "Educator of the Week" from September First thru October 13th, to honor a different Christian County educator and the commitment they've made to their students and schools.  

This week's "Educator of the Week" is Kailey LeVault, who teaches fourth grade at VisionWay Christian School in Taylorville. This is LeVault’s second year teaching. She taught third-grade last year. LeVault says kids are the reason why she loves teaching.

Levault says that COVID has been a struggle, but the teachers at VisionWay are making it work.

LeVault thanked some of the mentors including Cara Thomas that have helped her along her way.

Levault acknowledged that this was a good surprise.
