Riverwalk Academy is proud to celebrate three incredible educators who continue to show what Pride in Every Step looks like!
Ms. Robinson — Elementary Staff Member of the Month
Our very own Chief Smiles Officer, Ms. Robinson, was nominated this month by a parent, which says a lot about the trust she has built with our families. Her daughter has been in Ms. Robinson’s care for eleven years, and even now in high school, she still knows she can go to her with anything. As the parent shared: “I trust her to lead my child in a positive way.” Ms. Robinson keeps things running smoothly no matter how many kids are around, and she reflects our commitment to treating every child with respect and fairness so we can fully invest in each one based on their individual needs.
Coach Uribe — Middle School Staff Member of the Month
As our middle school PE teacher, Coach Uribe gives her students a space where they feel welcome and where mistakes are part of learning. A colleague shared: “Coach Uribe constantly provides an environment that is welcoming to students and accepts mistakes.” She introduces students to new sports and pushes them to give their best and keep building their skills. Coach Uribe lives out our commitment to putting positive relationships first and keeping a “we are glad to be here” mindset every day.
Ms. Teague — High School Staff Member of the Month
As a high school counselor, Ms. Teague helps students through the dual enrollment process. She explains their options, walks them through the requirements, and helps them feel confident about taking the next step. She also invests in her colleagues. A fellow counselor who is new to the role shared: “Her guidance makes a meaningful difference to both our students and me.” Ms. Teague shows what it looks like to meet every student where they are and invest in each one based on their individual needs.
Congratulations, Ms. Robinson, Coach Uribe, and Ms. Teague. Thank you for showing our students and staff what Pride in Every Step looks like! 🦁💙
