Brown Named Outstanding Teacher
PERDIDO, Ala. — Former Perdido Elementary School fifth-grade teacher Danielle Brown has been named Outstanding Teacher of the Year for Alabama’s Area VI Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCD), Gulf Coast Media reported. Beginning in 2020, Brown’s students participated in the district’s Conservation Stewardship Poster Contest. In 2021, Brown launched an effort to construct a pollinator garden at Perdido Elementary School, for which the Baldwin SWCD donated $500 to purchase native pollinator plants and other supplies for the garden. Brown used the pollinator garden during a Monarch Migration Project and, in May 2021, received a $500 teacher grant from the North Baldwin Coalition for Excellence in Education for the project. Her students then raised, released and tagged their own monarch butterflies, and they continue to monitor Monarch Watch to see if any have been collected. This year, as a teacher at Flomaton Elementary School, Brown won the district’s Participation Award. Brown taught in Baldwin County for more than 19 years, four of which at Perdido Elementary.
