Gabriela Casillas 

Hello! My name is Gaby Casillas. I was born and raised in Michoacan, Mexico. I arrived in the United States when I was 15 years old. I graduated from Southeast High School in 2006, and attended Dalton State College where I received my bachelor's degree in English with a certificate in Secondary Education in 2014. The summer of 2019, I received my Master’s degree in Secondary English Education from Piedmont College. I have been teaching for 7 years at Northwest Whitfield High School. I teach 9-12 literature and English for Students of Other Languages (ESOL). I love seeing my students succeed and being able to help them achieve their goals and dreams at the academic and personal level.

Judith Fleet

This is my 5th year of teaching math at Northwest High School. Before coming to NHS, I taught math for 25+ years in both public and private schools in the North Georgia area. I love connecting with my students, seeing their eyes light up and their confidence grow when they comprehend a difficult concept. Anytime I am not at school, I am on the road to Texas, Ohio, Florida, or North Carolina to spend time with my extended family. In addition to spending time with my family I love to read, watch shows, sit on the beach and listen to the waves or go for hikes outdoors and enjoy the beauty of creation.
