Dr. Janice Richardson, principal of Valdosta High School, announces that Oluwatoni Salami, daughter of Elizabeth Omiteru and Tolulope Salami, is the 2022 STAR student, and she has chosen Brenda Rodgers, her fifth grade teacher from Sallas Mahone Elementary, as her STAR teacher. The PAGE Student Teacher Achievement Recognition (STAR) program, now in its 64th year, is sponsored, administered, and promoted by the Professional Association of Georgia Educators (PAGE) and the PAGE Foundation. Since its creation, the STAR program has honored over 28,000 students and the teachers they have selected as having had the most influence on their academic achievement. To obtain the 2022 STAR nomination, graduating high school seniors must have the highest score on a single test date on the SAT and be in the top 10 percent or top 10 students of their class based on grade point average.

Universal screening is conducted a minimum of three times during the school year to monitor students’ basic skills in literacy and numeracy. The primary purpose of STAR Early Literacy, STAR Reading, and STAR Mathematics assessments is to improve teaching and learning by using data to make informed decisions.
