☕️🌟 Be A Bean Recognition | Meadowview Elementary Hometown Hero & Patrick Henry High School - Above the Call of Duty
Ms. Lindsey Stacy wears many hats as both a bus driver and dual enrollment calculus teacher — and she’s amazing at both!
She recently earned Be a Bean recognition for her calm response during a student medical emergency and for replying to a student’s math question… within three minutes… on a Sunday night!

☕️🌟 Be A Bean Recognition | Meadowview Elementary School
We’re celebrating a remarkable group of teachers from Meadowview Elementary School whose hard work and dedication are truly changing the water! Earlier this year, another school division in Virginia reached out to learn our secret to success after seeing Meadowview’s incredible third-grade SOL gains -- and the answer was simple: the teachers in the classroom.
Over the past few years, these outstanding educators have helped Meadowview’s third-grade students grow by leaps and bounds:
*Math: from 70% (2022) ➡️ 82% (2025)
*Reading: from 68% (2022) ➡️ 84% (2025)
Those double-digit jumps don’t happen by chance — they happen because of teachers who believe in their students, work as a team, and make learning come alive every day.
Join us in congratulating these incredible third-grade teachers for being shining examples of what it means to Be a Bean -- uplifting others and creating positive change across Washington County Public Schools!
*Math Teachers ~ Jeri Skeens & Jennifer Gauldin
*Language Arts Teachers ~ Robin McGhee & Kristen Harris
Stay tuned as we continue recognizing more amazing “Beans” in the coming weeks!
