Burbank Unified School District nominated Dolores Huerta Middle School teacher, Teri Vargas, as 2024’s Teacher of the Year. “Whenever Teri Vargas is in the classroom, she leads by example,” said Superintendent John Paramo. “She makes her students feel valued, appreciated, and loved. In this type of environment, students naturally grow and learn.” - Photo courtesy Burbank Unified School District
