Written by Qumaria Gibson:
"Ms. Raeford has worked at Southern Guilford for 17 years. Ms. Raeford is not only an art teacher but also the cultural art department head, chairwoman of the school-based leadership team, and has helped decorate our school with art murals. She makes every student who has had her feel understood and valued. Her art room is a comforting space. She lightens up the boring task of teachers with a little fun of her own. Whether that is dressing up as a judge or coloring pages of faculty faces, she aims to have fun while she works."
