February's Teacher of the Month is none other than Eagle Pass Junior High School's, Mr. Norman Carreon. Mr. Carreon is a superb teacher that has passion about his craft! His method of teaching is like no other. He has well thought out lessons that captivate the minds of his students and he is always looking for ways to improve his strategies.
His room is like entering a whole other world reared for teaching and learning! He is the kind of teacher that exemplifies no child left behind! He is kind, patient, and caring towards all his students. He makes all his students feel welcomed and he is always willing to help and lead his fellow teachers as well. He always shares with the department his lesson plans, materials, and resources. The Math Department at EPJ constantly gets emails from Mr. Carreon on strategies to use in their classrooms.
Mr. Carreon is quick to volunteer, lend a hand to anyone around him and for all these reasons and more, Mr. Norman Carreon is Teacher of the Month.
A segment will appear on iVision throughout the month of June detailing many more accomplishments of Mr. Carreon.
