A classroom culture where students talk nonstop about the importance of growing as readers. A collaborative space where students are eager to learn from their peers and teacher. An inspirational educator who fosters collaborative spaces for her team to embrace best practices towards student achievement continuously. We are excited to announce this week’s cardinal spotlight is Mrs. Farias. Mrs. Farias has a wealth of knowledge in ensuring that our first-grade scholars enter Gallardo prepared to excel. She creates routines and structures that students follow, lead, and embrace while creating a classroom culture that emphasizes educational excellence. She is an advocate for her team and continuously thinks about ways to ensure teachers are growing alongside their students and get the support needed. Most importantly, Mrs. Farias is a reflective educator who thinks deeply about her craft and how she can improve daily. We are enthusiastic about having her as this week’s Cardinal Spotlight and are excited to continue learning from her expertise.

She has also learned to be respectful as she learns from her teammates’ perspectives and contributions to the team. With all her hard work, we are happy to announce her team will be going to the championship.
