PALM COAST－Agatha Lee described her reaction as “disbelief” when School Board Chairwoman Sue Dickinson called her name last Thursday night at Flagler Auditorium.

Lee，a second-grade teacher at Belle Terre Elementary School，was named Flagler County's Teacher of the Year today.

“I was in such a great group of excellent teachers and I was just shocked.”Lee said in an interview after the announcement.

Every Flagler school names a Teacher of the Year once a year and those nominees(候选人) are considered for the district's award. That winner，along with winners from the state's other districts，is then considered for the Florida Teacher of the Year Award，which is announced in July.

To be qualified for the teaching award，teachers must encourage continuous learning，show skillfulness in their subject area，use creative teaching strategies(策略)，show leadership and create a caring and respectful environment.

Jill Stirling，a kindergarten teacher，Flagler's 2010 Teacher of the Year，said she also met winners from throughout the state to share teaching strategies and best practices.“I often think of those little people that have made me the teacher I am and the person that I am，” Stirling said.

Lee，the following new winner，who is now in her thirteenth year of teaching，came to Flagler County in 2004 after working in Pasco and St. Johns counties. She worked at the former Indian Trails K8 school and came to Belle Terre Elementary when it opened in fall 2005.

Lee，who comes from a family of teachers，said she has always enjoyed being with children.

“I love watching their faces when they have that ‘aha’ moment，” she said.
