I just love to hear about folks that complete an online degree and acheive great things

Like Stella Luckey. She recently got her Masters degree and at the same time was named a top teacher at her school, West Glades School.

Her career in teaching began sixteen years ago. Since 2004, when West Glades opened she has been the media specialist there.

She is the wife of the principal of the school, Larry Luckey.

She earned her Masters Degree in Technology in Media Education from the University of Central Florida. Mrs. Luckey did all the work and research for her degree online at her home.

“If I had had to drive to a campus anywhere I think I would not have been able to sacrifice enough driving time to have completed the work for this degree,” she said.

She graduated with honors, no less!

Not only that, but she’s also gifted in the art of sign language, and is certified to teach the hearing impaired and when needed or requested to do so. And she is gifted in painting and drawing. One of her most outstanding art accomplishments is a mural on the library wall at West Glades. It is a painting of a panther, the school mascot, in a mammoth oak tree. The work is approximately five feet high and twelve feet long.

During her tenure at West Glades, she started a new library, a new library program and her artwork made that library unique to West Glades School. She is an integral part of the technology acquisition plan and assists in installing new technology and teaching teachers how to use it.

Kudos to Stella Luckey and West Glades!
