The teachers that were honored are the 2011 District Rookies of the Year:
Elizabeth Carney, art teacher, Seguin Elementary,
Meg Pickert, English Language Arts teacher, Schiff Elementary,
Rachel Schwind, art teacher, Heritage Rose Elementary,
Chrissie Hutton, special education teacher, Travis High School,
Chelsea Larsen, ninth-grade English teacher, Elkins High School, and
Michael Tufariello, sixth-grade math teacher, Hodges Bend Middle School.
"The challenges for public education are huge, and we are extremely proud of the work of our teachers. We are grateful to Sugar Land Rotary for recognizing our exceptional first-year teachers," said Dr. Jenney.
Each teacher received a complimentary gift provided by David Taylor Cadillac.
