Jefferson Union High School District
Coming from a family of teachers, Lecar Marie Maghanoy witnessed how her mother, grandfather, aunt, and uncle could touch their students’ lives. Often referred to as second parents, teachers are undeniably influential in a student’s life. Their lessons inside and outside of the classroom help shape students’ attitudes, mindsets, and outlooks on life.
