EPISD Teacher of the Month
The Eagle Pass Independent School District has partnered with local businesses throughout our city to highlight the Teacher of the Month program, which honors educators who have made a difference in our community. The program recognizes outstanding kindergarten, elementary, junior high, and high school teachers in Eagle Pass, Texas.
Sandra Guadiana, who teaches pre-kindergarten at the Language Development Center, is the “Teacher of the Month” for October 2013. A segment will appear on iVision throughout the month of October detailing the accomplishments of Sandra Guadiana. Sandra Guadiana will also appear on our community media, news publications and the EPISD website throughout October 2013.
A teacher will be selected each month through June 2014 for a total of nine (9) honorees. The “Teacher of the Month” will be chosen based on educational achievements in the classroom, community contributions and innovativeness of the program/techniques used by the teacher. The “Teacher of the Month” will receive a certificate of recognition and will be featured on iVision, local media news, news publications and radio broadcasting. Additionally, each “Teacher of the Month” will receive donations from local businesses.
This month we would like to thank our sponsors, HEB, Luby’s and Ancira Ford – Eagle Pass.
