24-25 Teacher of the Year and Staff Member of the Year
Congratulations to our 2024-2025 Teacher of the Year, Ms. Lindsay Shoemake!
Ms. Shoemake is an experienced teacher who strives to do well in all aspects of her job. Not only is she an amazing dyslexia interventionalist, but she is also a great help to classroom teachers. She collaborates with classroom teachers, by providing resources, tips, and tricks to help students who are already identified or having difficulties reading. Besides teaching in her classroom every day, Ms. Shoemake is one of the beautiful smiling faces students are greeted by every morning. She cares so much about her students and does everything she can to ensure each student reaches his or her full potential. She attends countless meetings, will do anything for anyone, and just goes above and beyond. We are fortunate to have a staff member as wonderful as Lindsay! The students, parents, and teachers just love her!
Congratulations to our 2024-2025 Para-Professionsl of the year, Mrs. Irma Almaguer.
Ms. Irma always has a positive attitude and seems genuinely happy to be here every day. She shows love and kindness to the kids every day, and the students love her so much. She is calm and loving and we are so lucky to have her help with our smallest kiddos at Blanton. Ms. Irma is amazing with her class and all the PreK students. She works tirelessly for her class and is a great teammate. PreK is hard and she's so calm and patient and loving with our kids. She is fabulous at what she does!
