Cherokee County School District Highlights - Cherokee HS Teacher Wins Statewide Hero Award

Grace Ed Technologies has announced that Cherokee HS teacher and coach Jeremy Law is one of three winners of its 2021 Teacher Heroes Awards. The education technology company accepted nominations statewide of K-12 teachers who have demonstrated extraordinary dedication, effort, character, and ability over the past school year. More than 100 teachers were nominated, with 12 finalists selected and then narrowed to the three winners. Each winner receives a $1,000 award.

Coach Law, who is a special education teacher and a football coach, is a past CCSD Teacher of the Year, an honor he earned for his service at Teasley MS. An Etowah HS graduate, Coach Law earned a bachelor’s degree in business and pursued a career in banking before he realized his true calling was to teach and coach youth. He taught at Teasley MS and coached football at Sequoyah HS before joining the Cherokee HS faculty and earning a master’s degree in special education and a specialist degree in curriculum and instruction. At Cherokee HS, he has helped lead programs for youth including the school’s FCA club and Student-Athlete Leadership Team (SALT) program.

“Jeremy demonstrates servant leadership daily,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Brian V. Hightower. “He has earned this recognition through all he does to teach and coach his students and support and mentor his colleagues.”
