This year, Starr’s Mill welcomes new sign language interpreter Britnie Williams. Williams is one of the three sign language interpreters here at Starr’s Mill. She interprets for three students and rotates throughout the day with the other interpreters.

“I love [working here], I absolutely love it,” Williams said. She also loves watching comedy movies, watching plays, going to new restaurants, and painting. Williams enjoys getting out and playing a game of tennis on occasion.

Williams graduated from Valdosta State University and shortly after took a job as a sign language interpreter at Marietta High School in Marietta, Ga. After a few years of working there, Williams made the decision to move down south to work here at Starr’s Mill.

Williams is enjoying her first year at Starr’s Mill. She appreciates the care that the teachers and staff have toward their students and their academic process.

“[Starr’s Mill] is a great team to be apart of,” Williams said.
