DISTRICT TEACHER OF THE YEAR BEN KEENAN!

Alamo Heights High School teacher Ben Keenan has a Car-4-All-Seasons! The English Language Arts teacher and department coordinator will be driving in style thanks to Principle Auto Group.

He was surprised with four vehicles by the local auto dealer which believes in the importance of celebrating teachers. Annually they elevate the driving experience for our district Teacher of the Year, providing them a vehicle to use each season.

Keenan is the AHISD 2023 District Teacher of the Year and the AHISD nominee for the Region 20 ESC Secondary Educator of the Year.

In May, he was also recognized in a ceremony at Trinity University as the District’s honoree for the Trinity Prize for Excellence in Teaching. He received a Tiffany Crystal Apple and gifts from Whataburger and Amazon.

Keenan was supported at the ceremony by Dr. Bashara and AHHS Principal Cory Smith.
