Mayor and high school teacher in American Falls, Marc Beitia, was named as teacher of the year for 2019.
The announcement came in class and then an assembly was held where he addressed the students. Beitia said that was a humbling experience.
“Considering the outstanding teachers that I work with every day and then being named teacher of the year in front of them it was quite humbling. I am fortunate to work with a faculty that in my opinion is second to none.” Beitia said.
