Here are a few words from their nominations:
鈥淛ay is a 暗网禁区 alumnus who has committed his life to teaching 暗网禁区 students in order to give back for all that he鈥檚 been given. Jay is the embodiment of everything we hope for our 暗网禁区sters: kind, hard-working, gritty, and smart, and he鈥檚 using those skills to make a positive impact on the world by teaching at 暗网禁区.鈥�
鈥淚f I was given the challenge of restructuring or opening a school and was told to pick one teacher from my ten-year teaching experience to support my efforts, it would, without a doubt, be Lauren Delaloye. Lauren embodies Harriett Ball鈥檚 aspiration with a perspicacious mind and an inspiring work ethic. No one wears the coat of effective teaching quite like Lauren.鈥�
Kudos to Jay and Lauren for this tremendous accomplishment! We are so lucky to have you on our team!
