Era un día cualquiera en Kleberg Elementary School: una estudiante se dirigía a la oficina para que la recogieran porque no se sentía bien. El día dio un giro de 360º cuando Loren Carcamo llegó a recoger a su hija y se le rompió la fuente. La enfermera de Kleberg, Tylar Krause, fue llamada, y aunque no tenía ninguna experiencia en partos, sabía quién si la tenía: la maestra bilingüe de quinto grado María Pérez Caraballo. Después de escuchar su nombre por el altavoz de la escuela, Pérez Caraballo corrió a la oficina de la enfermera, donde encontró a Krause…
It was just another day at Kleberg Elementary School—a student headed to the office to be picked up because she was not feeling well. The day took a turn to the unusual when Loren Carcamo arrived to pick up her daughter and her water broke. Kleberg’s nurse, Tylar Krause, was called, and while she did not have any experience delivering a child, she knew who did: fifth-grade bilingual teacher Maria Perez Caraballo. After hearing her name over the school’s speaker system, Perez Caraballo rushed to the nurse’s office, where she found Krause helping Carcamo through her contractions. Perez Caraballo was…
Las palabras pueden tener un efecto duradero, cosa que Earnest Sims, maestro de educación física en Wilmer-Hutchins Elementary School, aprendió en 1983 a poco tiempo de graduarse de la preparatoria en Arkansas. “Lo recuerdo como si fuera ayer”, dijo Sims. “Fui a la oficina de la consejera y me dijo: ‘No eres lo suficientemente inteligente para que te vaya bien en la universidad’. Se me quedó grabado. En mi vida hay tantas cosas que me rehusé a hacer por miedo a fracasar, solo por lo que me dijo una sola persona”. Pese a ello, Sims trabajó mucho y se graduó…
Words can have a lasting effect on people, something that Wilmer Hutchins Elementary School physical education teacher Earnest Sims learned in 1983 as he was preparing to graduate from his high school in Arkansas. “I remember it like it was yesterday,” Sims said. “I went into the counselor’s office, and the counselor told me, ‘You’re not smart enough to be successful in college.’ That stayed with me. So many things in life I refused to do because I was afraid I was going to fail, just because of what one person said.” Even so, Sims worked hard and graduated from…
Ana Casas Sanmartín, maestra de geometría en Woodrow Wilson High School, estaba hace poco en su salón cuando uno de sus exalumnos, Aarón Castro, se le acercó y le alegró el día. Le dijo: “El año pasado fue la primera vez que entendí las matemáticas. Realmente estaba batallando. No las capté hasta que llegué a su clase”. Y agregó: “Ahora me encantan los ángulos”. Para Casas, la enseñanza se trata de eso: ayudar a los estudiantes a triunfar y estar orgullosos de lo que pueden lograr. Tanto sus colegas como los estudiantes conocen su pasión. “Su dedicación a los estudiantes…
Ana Casas Sanmartín, a geometry teacher at Woodrow Wilson High School, was sitting in her classroom recently when a former student, Aaron Castro, came up to her and made her day. The senior told her, “Last year was the first time I understood math. I really was struggling. I never figured it out until your class.” And then he added, “I love angles now.” For Casas, that is what teaching is all about: helping students feel successful and proud of what they can achieve. Her passion shines through to her fellow teachers and students alike. “Mrs. Casas’ dedication to her…
