Walking into a classroom and witnessing exceptional teaching and learning brings immense joy and an irresistible urge to spread that excitement. This week, Mrs. Robinson, one of our SLP supervisors, had the privilege of visiting Mrs. Rebecca Manuel's kindergarten classroom at Glendale Elementary School. The classroom experience was so deeply moving that Mrs. Robinson felt compelled to share it with Superintendent Batiste and his Cabinet team. As a result, it's only appropriate to feature an Employee Spotlight today. Mrs. Manuel, your dedication to sharing your teaching talents in the St. Landry Parish School District is truly commendable. Teachers like you serve as a beacon of inspiration, extending their influence far and wide. Thank you for your outstanding contributions! #EmployeeSpotlight #InspiringEducators #slpProud
