The next National Teacher of the Year could very well be one of the two outstanding teachers selected this year to represent Sac City in the first phase of the Teacher of the Year competition.
Jennifer Hughes, an instructor for eight years, teaches a split first/second grade class at John Bidwell Elementary School.
With ten years in the classroom, Michael Holt teaches eighth grade at California Middle.
Asa was also selected as Sacramento County Teacher of the Year.
Seven years ago, Asa Salley began his teaching career at John Bidwell. He is currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Multicultural Education. Salley continues to share his knowledge with other educators by presenting at conferences, and was a guest lecturer at UC Davis on “closing the achievement gap.” “I try to take advantage of any opportunity to improve my teaching so I can give my students the very best of myself,” he said.
