Mr. Eddie Deaton, our outstanding band director was selected by his fellow staff members as the Page Teacher of the year award.  Mr. Deaton graduated from Page in 2000 and went on to UNC-Chapel Hill.  He has been teaching here for nine years, and has been teaching for twelve years total.  Mr. Deaton on winning teacher of the year says, “I feel very honored and humbled to be selected as Teacher of the Year at Page. There are a so many great educators here, and I feel blessed to work with and among them.  My favorite thing about teaching is helping students to realize their potential for emotional and intellectual growth. Band provided me a means for personal expression while in high school, and I hope to give students that same opportunity through our performances and rehearsals each day.” 

                After winning Page’s teacher of the year, Deaton will now be in the run to win Guilford County Schools Teacher of the year award.  Good luck to Mr. Deaton!
