Stone Memorial High School would like to recognize Mr. Joe Goss as its 2025-26 teacher of the year.
Goss has taught at SMHS for 19 years and has 22 total years of teaching experience in Cumberland County. Mr. Goss teaches CDC classes and serves as a great role model that builds positive relationships with students and parents.
He also volunteers for our Stone Memorial Panthers football team helping in the pressbox.
“His patience and kindness are far reaching,” said SMHS staff.
SMHS would also like to recognize Mrs. Susie Smith as its 2025-26 classified employee of the year.
Smith has worked for Cumberland County Schools for 33 years with the last 20 years being at SMHS. She is currently the custodian for second shift but also worked as a teacher’s assistant for several years.
“Smith works tirelessly to ensure our building is ready for our students and teachers each and everyday,” said SMHS staff. “Her kindness is overflowing for all and gives encouragement through her actions and words.”
