SAN ANGELO, TX – The San Angelo ISD announced that Glenmore Elementary teacher Veronica Stapper has been named the Region 15 Elementary Teacher of the Year. Stapper was selected as the San Angelo ISD District Elementary Teacher of the Year, along with Lake View High School’s Rachal Brewster as District Secondary Teacher of the Year, and Glenmore Elementary Teacher of the Year in May during our annual end of year District Celebration.

She is known as an amazing storyteller and uses her life lessons to show students that their hopes and dreams can be achieved with a lot of hard work. Her students are her inspiration to make the world a better place.
“Mrs. Stapper is one of the most humble educators I know. The day the announcement came out about her being the Region 15 Teacher of the Year, she was working at SAISD's Elementary STEM camp, after already working summer school in June. Her dedication and commitment to students is unparalleled'' said Deputy Superintendent Dr. Farrah Gomez. “The sparkle in her eyes as she watches students blossom in the environments she has created exemplifies the greatness of the best of the best public educators. They remove all barriers and bring new possibilities forward where all students can shine.”
Mrs. Stapper exemplifies the characteristics within our SAISD Educator Profile through her commitment to her students and by providing each student with an inspiring educational experience which prepares them to be future-ready, whatever that future may be.
As Region 15 Elementary Teacher of the Year, Stapper is one of 40 teachers vying for the State Elementary Teacher of the Year title. This fall, three elementary finalists will be selected and interviewed by the Texas Association of School Administrators (TASA) prior to naming the state recipient. San Angelo ISD is honored to have Mrs. Stapper representing San Angelo, our district and her fellow dedicated teachers who work diligently to impact the lives of San Angelo students in a positive way.
We extend a heartfelt congratulations to Mrs. Stapper on this well-deserved honor of Region 15 Elementary Teacher of the Year, and look forward to continued success for our Glenmore Elementary students under her guidance. She is a shining example of how at SAISD, our people make the difference.
