Teaching and Training – IDEA Mission College Prep

Hannia Arevalo from IDEA Mission College Prep earned third place in the 2022 Educators Rising Moment Competition at the Educators Rising National Conference in Washington, D.C. on June 24-27, 2022. Arevalo is the first student from IDEA Public Schools to compete in the Educators Rising Moment Competition and represent the district at the national level. “Her compelling story about why she wants to be an educator stole the hearts of the judges among the fierce competition,” explains Teacher and TAFE sponsor Jalyssa Garza, “she was able to rise and stand out! I am so proud of her!”
