The First Annual
The Fun Warehouse's
First Annual Golden Rule Project
At Fun Warehouse, we believe in the power of kindness, compassion, and treating others with the respect and empathy we all deserve. It’s the core of the Golden Rule: “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” This timeless principle stands as a reminder to lead with understanding and generosity in all that we do. That’s why, this year, we are thrilled to introduce the First Annual Golden Rule Project, a heartfelt initiative to celebrate and honor those who embody this principle every day.
For our inaugural project, we’re focusing on some of the most selfless individuals in our community—teachers. These everyday heroes not only educate but inspire, nurture, and uplift our children, often going above and beyond to ensure their students have the tools they need to succeed. Many teachers spend their personal money to decorate classrooms, purchase supplies, and create a welcoming environment that fosters learning and growth.
But First, What is the Golden Rule?
The Golden Rule is a universal principle found in cultures, religions, and philosophies across the world. It’s simple yet profound: “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” This timeless idea serves as a moral compass, encouraging kindness, empathy, and respect in our interactions with others.
The Golden Rule isn’t just about words—it’s about action. It’s a call to consider how our choices impact those around us and to lead with fairness and understanding. By following this principle, we create stronger connections, build trust, and foster communities where everyone feels valued.
The Seven Principles:

These principles remind us that the Golden Rule isn’t just a guideline for treating others—it’s a way to create a more compassionate, understanding, and united world. Whether through small acts of kindness or life-changing gestures, living by the Golden Rule has the power to transform lives and strengthen communities.
By embracing these principles, we can all take steps toward making the world a better place—one thoughtful action at a time.

Amanda Comeau-Sheren
Myrtle Beach Middle School
I’m Amanda Comeau-Sheren, a 6th grade math special education teacher who believes every child deserves to feel safe, seen, and supported. I lead with compassion, creativity, and care — doing my best to treat each student the way I’d want someone to treat my own children. I’m honored to help students grow not just in academics, but as kind and confident individuals.
Jessica MacRae
Waccamaw Elementary School
At the young age of five, I decided that I was going to grow up to be a teacher. For the past 16 years I have been living my childhood dream. I am currently a first grade teacher at Waccamaw Elementary School in Conway. My favorite part about my school day is teaching kids how to read! I strive to create a positive learning environment where each of my students can be successful, and know that they are loved. When I am not teaching I enjoy spending time with my family; we like to go camping, spend time on the boat, and explore new places together.
Keeley Vaught
Ocean Bays Middle School
My name is Keeley Vaught and I have had the privilege of being an educator for 13 years in Horry County. Currently, I teach first grade at Ocean Bay Elementary, where I am deeply committed to fostering a positive and nurturing learning environment. I am incredibly grateful to be nominated for the Golden Rule Project. I strive to model kindness, compassion, and empathy in my interactions with students, believing that these values are essential for creating a supportive classroom community. Thank you for recognizing my efforts in promoting these important principles!
Taylor Wims
Ten Oaks Middle School
After completing a Teacher Cadet program in high school, I knew immediately that I was meant to teach middle school. I’ve spent the last 13 years teaching 7th graders and have been so lucky to do so. Middle school is often a time of trial and error, and it’s important that students are able to navigate this with both structure and support. In addition to teaching, I serve as the Mock Trial Coach and on our School Improvement Council. I’ve previously served as the chair of our English department, organized spelling bees and awards days, hosted CCU interns, and served on the leadership team. In all roles, I strive to remain straightforward, honest, and dedicated to my students so they are successful both inside and outside of the classroom. Children deserve great learning opportunities, and I am proud to be able to foster that for them.
XaZiera Fogle
Waccamaw Elementary School
I am currently a third grade teacher at WES. It has been a wild ride becoming a wildcat part the way through the year. I had my baby August 30th, and exactly 6 weeks later I got a call to say that I was hired! My class was created from seven other third grade classes. I have been a substitute in HCS for almost 8 years, while finishing my degrees in education. My dream is to be a child development teacher but having the opportunity to work with children in any way is fulfillment for me. I volunteer at the local rec, help out with the musical at the middle school and try to keep up with my twins schedules. I have always wanted to be and love everyday that I am a teacher. I am thankful daily for the time that I have with all my students and the changes that they make in my life. Watching my past students, and current students grow has always filled a special place in my heart. I hope to continue my journey in education and forever be a part of the change that children are for the world.
