SARAH STORY CHOSEN EAST SIDE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHER OF THE YEAR
Sarah Story was recently selected as the East Side Elementary School Teacher of the Year. Sarah is a
self-contained, Special Education teacher at East Side. Originally from Mt. Pleasant, Texas, she came
to Magnolia in 2009 to attend Southern Arkansas University. She did her student teaching at East
Side and graduated with her bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education in 2013. Sarah continued
her education by pursuing and graduating with her master’s degree in Special Education in 2015. She
has been working for the Magnolia School District for 9 years. Her East Side family helped her plan
her wedding to Andrew Story in 2016 and regaled her with tales of motherhood when she was
getting ready to welcome their son Theo into the world in 2018. The East Side family has been by her
side through all of the ups and downs of life, and she says that they are the reason that she is the
teacher she is today. In her free time, she enjoys running, reading psychological thrillers, and
listening to true crime podcasts. Her goal as a teacher is that each of her students will know that
they are valued and important. She saw a quote once that stated, “Just because a student is nonverbal does not mean they have nothing to say”. She enjoys helping students, both verbal and nonverbal, learn how to express themselves and explore their world, while also developing their social
and academic skills. The greatest moments for her are when she sees her students begin to grasp
concepts that they have struggled with in the past, whether it is a student who is only beginning to
communicate using their voice or other communication system or tackling an academic skill that they
have wrestled with for a long time. She became a teacher because she believes that if we want to
change the world, we do it by educating children and teaching them empathy, reasoning,
communication, and to believe in themselves. She is honored, humbled and thankful to be chosen by
her peers to represent East Side as Teacher of the Year. It would be her privilege to be chosen as the
Teacher of the Year for the District where she started her journey as a student teacher and that
continues to provide opportunities for her while challenging her to be the very best teacher she can
be for her students and her peers.
Starting Monday off with a Positive Office Referral! We are proud of you, Ian!
