Statewide recognition a possibility for one Barren County Teacher

GLASGOW, Ky. – Every year, the Kentucky Board of Education looks for teachers to commend on exemplary performance, and this year, they have sights set on Barren County. The Board’s Department of Special Education and Early Learning is considering Logan Brooks, along with two other teachers in the state for recognition of their performance in their field.

Brooks in a very modest interview with News 40 said that she says all the time she’s “just a regular teacher” just “doing her job” and doesn’t think she’s anything special.

Brooks has been in special education for 15 years and helps the county with children who are deaf and hard of hearing, so being that she is a nontraditional teacher, she sees kids all the way from elementary school till they wrap up their career and Barren County.

Results will be in this November.
