Hello!
I am Latoya Thompson-Whyte, your Family and Consumer Science Teacher here at Hardeeville Junior and Senior High. I am presently teaching Food and Nutrition 1 and 2 along with Sports Nutrition 1. I have been teaching since 2004 and I have taught at both the middle and high school levels. Teaching is my passion, and I am grateful that I am getting an opportunity to share with you all daily. I believe that education can change the world for the better if teaching and learning is done correctly. It is like a vehicle, if driven properly can take us to wonderful and exciting places. As an educator I believe that no child should experience learning and not improve in a positive way even marginally. I want to create a safe and positive space where my students can be comfortable while they are learning and engaging with each other while acquiring skills and life lessons that will take them through life. I want students to feel like they can be who with my support and guidance. Students will not leave my classroom the same way they entered. They will be advanced academically and socially once they move on to make their mark in society. In my personal time I like to read and spend time with my friends and family. I also enjoy gardening. Let’s make this a great school year!
