Gold Star Teacher of the Month: December 2025 – Jennifer Hinton

Gold Star Teacher of the Month: December 2025 – Jennifer Hinton

Our QDR Gold Star Teacher of the Month for January is Jennifer Hinton, 8th Grade Social Studies Teacher at Archer Lodge Middle School 

Mrs. Hinton was nominated by Amanda Bell, who says, “Jennifer is a school favorite! She is always going above and beyond to make students feel welcomed, appreciated, loved and supported. She has the heart of pure gold! She takes personal time to come see kids play their sports and cheer them on. She recognizes their uniqueness and embraces it! She has a photo board in her classroom of all of her past students and can tell you about each and every one of them. She’s invested in their lives and she’s so deserving for something for herself! She recently returned from a trip to Jamaica where she raised supplies for teachers and children there. I’d love to see Mrs Hinton receive teacher of the month!”

Jennifer Hinton received a commemorative plaque from Creative Images in Cary, $100 from Crabtree to shop at Auntie Anne’s, and an additional $100 to shop anywhere at Crabtree, a community staple for more than 50 years! Her picture will also be featured on the jumbo screen at Crabtree, just below the food court for the month of November.
