We are thrilled to announce that two of our exceptional educators have received prestigious honors from the Education Service Center, Region 2.

Jane Lee-Rhodes, a dedicated teacher at Kaffie Middle School, has been named Regional Secondary Teacher of the Year. This outstanding achievement recognizes Ms. Lee-Rhodes' commitment to excellence in education and her significant impact on students' lives.

In addition to this honor, Ms. Lee-Rhodes will advance to the state level competition, where she will represent our district and compete for the title of Texas Secondary Teacher of the Year.

We are equally proud to share that Maria Alvarado from Zavala Elementary School has been named a finalist for Regional Elementary Teacher of the Year. This recognition highlights Ms. Alvarado's exceptional skills and dedication to nurturing young minds.

These accolades reflect the high-quality education our district provides and the tireless efforts of our teaching staff. Both educators exemplify the passion and commitment we strive for in our classrooms.
