Somerset County Public Schools Teacher of the Year Attends 36th Annual Maryland State Teacher of the Year Gala!
This past Friday, Somerset County Public Schools’ 2026–2027 Teacher of the Year, Corey Bivens, attended the 36th Annual Maryland State Teacher of the Year Gala alongside Superintendent W. David Bromwell, Interim Deputy Superintendent Tracie Bartemy, Woodson Elementary School Principal Jensen Long, and her husband, Jason Bivens, an SCPS Maintenance Technician.
The gala celebrated outstanding educators from across Maryland and recognized their dedication, commitment, and lasting impact on students and school communities.
Somerset County Public Schools is proud to have Mrs.Corey Bivens represent our district at this special event and celebrate the excellence of educators throughout the state.
Here are some highlights from the evening!

Somerset County Public Schools is in need of a Volunteer Parent surrogate!
Surrogate parents represent children with disabilities when a parent is unavailable to serve in the educational decision-making process. They help ensure that a child’s educational needs are heard and considered.
Interested in learning more? Please get in touch with Zeb Barlow, Supervisor of Special Education, zbarlow@somerset.k12.md.us , 410-651-1616.



Woodson Elementary is thrilled to announce our September staff member of the month, Mrs. Kelly Townsend, and September teacher of the month, Mrs. Danielle Crockett. We are SO thankful for the both of you and all you do for our students! 💙🌊 🩵
