An important part of giving back to the profession is when veteran teachers become mentors to new teaching candidates. I am thrilled to highlight the significant role and benefits of hosting student teachers at Irene Kelleher Totí:ltawtxw.

As we embrace this opportunity, it is essential to recognize the profound impact that hosting student teachers has on our school community.
