Mrs. Jessica Catid, Williston-Elko High School’s new English teacher, began her teaching career in 2017 in the Philippines. She came over to teach in the United States this year, beginning in September.

Mrs. Catid was inspired by a few of her former teachers to become one herself, including Miss B. from Macedonia Elementary School in Blackville.

Mrs. Catid enjoys working at Williston-Elko High School as she feels great support from both the faculty and staff, and is currently enjoying learning more about the United States.

As of now, she has been to New York, Georgia, North Carolina, Florida, and of course, South Carolina.

Mrs. Jessica Catid is a teacher who is a life-long learner as she is currently completing her master’s degree of Arts in Education with a major in English. She also loves learning from other cultures and taking pictures and videos of everything she can.

Mrs. Catid has shown to be a wonderful teacher and learner as she is willing to learn all that she can as well as do everything she can to be the best teacher. Williston-Elko High School is proud to have her in the English department.
