House of Raeford’s FLOCK philanthropic organization presented three Lexington School District Two teachers with Amazon gifts cards valued at $350, Monday.

The teachers receiving the gifts were: Stephanie Burgess, fourth-grade teacher at Saluda River Academy For The Arts, Kaylee Madge, third- grade teacher at Riverbank Elementary, and Jessica Zearfoss, ELA and math teacher at R.H. Fulmer Middle School.

“We wanted to do something different to highlight our schools and the amazing teachers and staff that make Lexington Two so special,” said Chuck Underhill with House of Raeford. “’FLOCK Loves Teachers’ is just our newest effort to say thank you.”

“We are very fortunate to have Ms Madge,” said David Sims, Riverbank principal during the presentation at his school. “She’s dedicated and talented. We want to keep her here.”

Madge said she loves being a teacher at Riverbank and she is committed to working toward the goals Lexington Two has for its students.

Each teacher was selected by their administrators and chosen because of their commitment to their students and their team.
