Before we announce our 2026 Excellence in Teaching Award winners (stay tuned!), we have one more incredible 2025 honoree to celebrate: Megan Weinberger from Wasatch Elementary! Here are a few of her nominations:

-Her classroom is a welcoming environment where every student feels valued and empowered to express themselves. Through her engaging lessons and supportive demeanor, she not only inspires her students to excel academically but also emotionally.
-Megan is the Newcomer teacher here at Wasatch and is ALWAYS going the extra mile to bridge academic, social, emotional, and behavioral learning with students who arrive at school speaking zero English. She is consistently successful in her efforts!
-Not only does she teach English to the Newcomer students, but also civics and ethics. She gives them tools to deal with emotions & feelings. Her teaching methods are innovative, fun, and effective.
-Megan is constantly reflecting and applying best practices to help her students grow and learn. She willingly shares her expertise with her colleagues. Good is never good enough because Megan always goes above and beyond to help students succeed.
