At Austin Public Schools, our mission is to inspire, empower, and accelerate every one of our learners, and we know that the only way for us to reach this goal is through the efforts of all our incredibly hard-working staff.
In this week’s Staff Spotlight, we’re highlighting Neveln Elementary School Special Education teacher Drue Sponheim.
"Mrs. Sponheim is a shining example of what it means to put relationships first both with students and colleagues. She is a great listener and is attentive to needs. Her growth mindset and positivity help to make everyone's day at school enjoyable."
