Superintendent Dr. Roland Hernandez recently announced the October Above the Line employees. Three honorees were surprised at their work locations with the announcement they had been selected. Nominations are always open for this employee recognition. Nominate an outstanding employee today! Administrator - Dr. Maria Luisa Guerra, Deputy Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction “Dr. Guerra’s belief that “Our children are non-negotiable and are entitled to a free and public, high-quality education” guides her work on daily basis. Her commitment to ensuring that all students are academically successful is exhibited through her leadership, academic strategies and initiatives, and keeping her fiscal focus instructionally-driven. She recognizes the importance of students being present for instruction and that even at-risk students or those with discipline issues can be academically successful given the right motivation and attention.” Auxiliary - Angel Cantu, PE Paraprofessional, Schanen Estates Elementary School “As a successful leader, Mr. Cantu knows the importance of creating strong shared visions for teams. His great personality and inspiring motivation, always gets others to accomplish their goals as well. He continues to put others first and sets the tone for success. Mr. Cantu always listens to others and speaks and acts with honesty. He is always involved in mentoring students and has recently taken on the role of PTA president where he continues to show his love and devotion to our school, staff, parents, and students.” Educator - Alyse Baros, 1st grade teacher, Zachary Kolda Elementary School “Alyse has dedicated hours of work to provide for the district since March. To say that she has revolutionized the instructional guides for elementary math is an understatement. She, along with another colleague, helped teachers from all elementary grade levels during virtual instruction not just in math, but in other subjects as well. She worked all hours of the day and night to help the district’s elementary teachers provide quality virtual instruction during the pandemic, and they continued throughout the summer to make sure that virtual instruction would go smoothly in the fall.”
