New to Booker T. Washington High School, Mrs. Chimiya Turner-Smith has already made impeccable strides as the Social Studies and ELA Master Teacher Leader. Bringing her fifteen-year teaching expertise to BTW, Mrs. Turner-Smith has fervently worked to enhance not only the instructional practice of her teams, but also the educational and personal development of her students.

“Mrs. TS has had the most impact on me. She was the first teacher at Booker T to welcome me. She is soo nice and friendly. What I like most is the fact that I can talk to her about anything. Whether it’s in school or my home life, she’s always been there and been a listening ear.”
