Congratulations to Mrs. Simancas! Global Educators of the Year

Many youths want to change the world, but their success often depends on the support and guidance of a caring advisor. In the next few days, we will highlight the educators who have gone above and beyond to help global-minded teens to connect their passion with action.

Under Mrs. Simancas's guidance, BWB Club at Los Sauces launched its campaign "Lending a Hand to Everyone and Everything" this year by conducting numerous events including visiting a local senior residence, collecting clothing for the earthquake victims in Turkey, and more cultural activities.

"Working with the students has been a real pleasure. I have been able to see day by day their personal growth and their level of commitment to the club and local actions, which have added an extra to their wonderful social awareness.

I have witnessed moments that have really touched me and not only have I enjoyed leading them through the process, but I have learned from them every day. I can only show my pride and congratulations for the excellent work done this year.

Keep up the excellent work!!!!"
