YOUR ATPE
Congrats to These Classroom Makeover Contest Winners! A $500 shopping spree for your classroom sounds pretty good, right? For two lucky ATPE members, that dream became a reality when they each received $500 as part of ATPE’s classroom makeover contest. Congratulations are in order to Kirstin Dietel of Hurst-Euless-Bedford ISD (pictured bottom right) and Yessica Segura of San Perlita ISD (pictured top right). The contest was open to 2018-19 student teacher members who renewed as 2019-20 first-time professional members.
