GCS Employee of the Month for January 2008

For most students, geometry classes aren’t the most fun, but in Dr. Acohin Thon’s class, students never know what to expect. Acohin helps students memorize complicated formulas by putting them into songs, raps and dances. He gives individual attention to each and every student, and by making sure they understand the complex subject matter of his class, he reinforces the message that he gives his students: “Failure is not an option.” Because of his energy to educate and creative teaching practices, Acohin was selected as the district’s January Employee of the Month.

As Guilford County Schools’ Employee of the Month, Acohin received a $50 gift card from Sam’s Club, who has partnered with GCS to execute the employee recognition program. His photo will hang at the district’s central offices and at Sam’s Club on Wendover Avenue. Watch for the Employee of the Month on GCSTV2!
