The Laura Peterson Energy Educator of the Week
Congratulations to Our Energy Educators of the Week,
Arely Medina is deserving of the Laura Peterson Energy Educator Award for many hundred reasons, but here are just a few:
Her warm smile and enthusiasm are infectious.
The love and encouragement she gives her students is palpable and seeps into every corner of her room. She works hard to give her students what they need to grow!
She is a teacher leader and wants what is best for the campus and the teachers in it and goes above and beyond to help others. Her dedication to her kiddos and her team impresses me daily.
She makes the best breakfast biscuit bombs.
It is an honor to know her!
Thank you for always going above and beyond for Hood-Case!
