Teacher Serves at State Level

Srinivas Akella, a teacher with the Warren County School District, is a part of Georgia State Superintendents' Teacher Advisory Council who had the opportunitiy to attend a legislative session at the state Senate in January.

Akella said the TAC is comprised of teachers from all over the state representing all grade levels.
He said the group acts as a connection between the teachers throughout the state and the Department of Education.
"Georgia Teacher of the Year finalists and teachers nominated due to their outstanding educational service qualities, ability to articulate teacher issues, and engagement in positive problem-solving collaborative discussions, act as liaisons between the Department of Education and the teachers of Georgia," Akella said.  The TAC meets with the state school superintendent twice during each school year to discuss how decisions that were made at the state level affect teachers in Georgia classrooms.

Akella has been a part of the TAC for five years, and this year they got to visit the Capitol and attend a legislative session at the senate on January 31.

Akella said he's in his 15th year in Warren County Schools, where he teaches the high school math, including Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, College Readiness Math, and College Algebra.
​
Originally from India, he taught in his home country for 11 years before coming to the United States.
Akella said he came to Warren County because he wanted to teach high school and his interest was piqued by it being a rural school district.
"When I saw that it was a rural school it attracted me actually," Akella said, who said he hoped he could serve students in a rural school district.
Akellla said serving on the TAC has been a great opportunity for him to advocate for the Warren County School District at the state level.
