A total of 17 educators will be recognized when the annual Harry T. Wilks “Hamilton Celebrates Education” event is celebrated for the 17th year on Wednesday, Oct. 16, at the Courtyard by Marriott in downtown Hamilton.

“When making their selection,” Braswell explained, “the schools were asked to consider the daily impact their educator had on students and the community, examples of innovation and going above and beyond the call of duty, and the educator’s overall leadership.” See all the honorees, including Badin's own, here HERE
