Canyon Ridge teacher wins monthly Surprise award
Posted
Each month, Raymond E. Grim Agency LLC and Montse Terepocki — Financial Advisor partner up to give out an award for teacher of the month in Surprise.
April’s winner of Teacher of the Month goes to Joseph Pagano from Canyon Ridge Elementary School.
A small part of the letter recommending Pagano read: “Mr. Pagano keeps showing up with a smile on his face, engaging with his students and teaching a love of literature. He is an amazing person and an inspiration for everyone at Canyon Ridge.”
For winning this award, his class received pizza from Barro’s Pizza and a gift card to Oregano’s.
Those who know a teacher in the Surprise area who deserves this recognition as well are asked to forward an email with the teacher’s name, school, and why they deserve to be Teacher of the Month to rgrim@amfam.com.
