Sadly, John I. Burton's Spanish teacher of eight years will be leaving this chapter of her life behind. This December, will be her last month of employment with Norton City Schools. When this semester ends, she and her husband will be leaving Norton City. They will be moving to Hartford, Virginia as he was offered another position regarding his work.
Mrs. Beauchamp will be continuing to teach Spanish but it will be at Chesapeake Public Schools. The school she is transferring to contains 1,300 students, eight foreign language teachers, and a variety of foreign language courses. She admits that she will miss teaching and coaching at Burton, along with the community and the scenery. Her favorite part of teaching at a small school is knowing the names of everyone in the school system.
The students and faculty will dearly miss Mrs. Beauchamp. Everyone at Burton believes that she will succeed at her new school and community. As she turns the page to begin her next journey, students and teachers wish her the best of luck. ¡Buena suerte, señora!
