🎉 Join us in celebrating our #BedfordCountySchools Rookie of the Year! 🎉

We are excited to honor Chris Hernandez from #SouthsideElementarySchool for earning this district wide recognition. 👏

Each year, principals nominate outstanding new educators who then respond to essay prompts reviewed by our Instruction Team at Central Office. Through this process, Chris stood out for his thoughtful approach to teaching and learning.

He is committed to continuous professional growth, creates opportunities for #students to actively engage in their learning and uses data to guide instructional decisions. 📊 Chris meets students where they are and thoughtfully builds the conditions that allow every learner to succeed.

#Congratulations, Chris, and #ThankYou for the positive difference you are making for students and families across BCS! 🌟
