Oct. 5 was World Teacher’s Day, an event to appreciate and celebrate teachers who make a huge difference in students’ lives, such as:

Brittany Bonner, aka Ms. Bonner, aka Ms. Bonbon, is known to others as the teacher who gives a lot of work.

“Sleepless nights I get from doing her 40 terms note sheet,” said Samuel Englich, a Junior in the Marine Academy who is taking her US history class. “In the end, she is a cool teacher and she gives us a lot of work because she knows we can handle it.”

Ms. Bonner said she has been teaching at Inlet for six years and teaches various subjects. For example, American History, AP US History, US History Honors and Sociology.

“She’s an amazing teacher and a fun teacher,” said Laila Weir, a 10th grader in the Pre-Architecture Academy who is also in Ms. Bonners AP US history class. “I really appreciate her because of how she helped me when I transferred in her class mid-semester.”

Ms. Bonner said she was born in February of 1999 in West Palm Beach at St. Mary’s Hospital. Her early life included two parents and a younger sister, she said. She went to university and became a first-generation graduate.

She now has an 8-year-old son, strives to become a lawyer in the future, and has her minions.

“My minions I see as my kids,” said Ms. Bonner about her students. “They keep me going and challenge thought, they are unique individuals.”

Every Thursday during lunch she opens her doors to the crochet club, where students can learn to crochet, chat, and eat with their friends. 

“She’s very sweet, she has this welcoming vibe to her,” said Yoldy Theolus, a 9th grader in the Medical Academy. “She gives me the safe space to talk to my friends and try something new.”
