Excellence in education is measured not just by test scores, but by the heart and longevity of the educator. This month, the spotlight shines on Ms. Christina Perez, a 3rd-grade teacher who has been selected as the KGNS Teacher of the Month.
Receiving this award is a testament to a career defined by stability and passion. Ms. Perez has been guiding students for 24 years, a tenure that has allowed her to impact generations of learners within the community.
Colleagues and administrators describe Ms. Perez as the true embodiment of what the love of teaching is. Her commitment goes beyond the curriculum; it is found in the daily enthusiasm she brings to her 3rd-grade classroom and the lasting connections she builds with her students.
After nearly two and a half decades in education, Ms. Perez remains a shining example of how passion and perseverance can change lives, one student at a time. Congratulations, Ms. Perez, on this well-deserved honor!
