National Teaching Award Nominee
Ashlie Gilland
McGavock High School, Nashville, Tennessee
Student Nomination Story
I have had many good teachers throughout my school career, but Coach Gilland, is the best. The G.O.A.T. (Greatest of All Time) if you shall say. Not only did she teach me more about volleyball, but she taught me more about myself. Coach Gilland is a high school physical education teacher, coach, and an amazing and funny person. I have known Coach Gilland for two years now. She was my freshman volleyball coach and she also coaches girls’ basketball. I believe Coach Gilland should be honored for her amazing coaching and being able to connect with the younger generation. She has so much faith in her students. Coach Gilland is has inspired me and many more to be a better person, student, and player. She takes time out of her day to make you have a better day or feel better. I am honored to have met, known, and even been one of her students and players. She should be honored for everything she does.
