🌟 Instructional Practices & Practicum Student Spotlight 🌟 Featuring: Lupita Garcia Mentor Teacher: Mrs. Brooke Lipsey – Libby Elementary Lupita Garcia, a Carthage High School senior, is standing out as a future educator through her compassion, work ethic, and heart for students. Mrs. Lipsey describes her as someone who ā€œgoes above and beyond what is asked of her. She comes right in and gets to work. She communicates well with both adults and students, and our students adore her.ā€ Over the course of her practicum, Lupita has grown tremendously in confidence. What began as a shy student with a goal to connect with one special needs student has blossomed into a young professional who’s built strong relationships and walks into the classroom with assurance and purpose. Her mentor shares, ā€œShe really cares about her students. She shows them the love and care they need, but isn’t afraid to correct them when needed.ā€ Lupita even went the extra mile by attending Open House after school hours so her students could introduce her to their parents — a true example of her commitment and heart for teaching. When asked for advice, Mrs. Lipsey encouraged her to ā€œkeep setting small goals — as you reach each goal, set a new one.ā€ ✨ Favorite Quote from Ms. Lipsey: ā€œYou’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.ā€ — Winnie the Pooh šŸ’¬ One word to describe Lupita: Kind šŸ’– #BetterAsABulldog #CarthageISD #FutureEducator #PracticumSpotlight #CTE #TeachingAndLearning #BulldogPride
