Celebrating Cristina Benion: Champion of Inclusive Education

April 19, 2024

Today, we shine a spotlight on Cristina Benion, a dedicated Special Education Teacher at Lindbergh High School, whose unwavering commitment to her students knows no bounds.

In her daily living classroom, Ms. Benion goes above and beyond to cultivate an inclusive and supportive environment for students with diverse needs. Recognizing the importance of practical life skills, she recently requested kitchen items to enhance the overall learning experience for her students. These items are not just utensils and appliances; they are tools that enable every student to fully participate and engage in the curriculum.

Thanks to the generosity of our Captain Sponsor, Brown & Brown Insurance, Ms. Benion's grant request was fulfilled, allowing her to equip her classroom with the necessary resources. With these new additions, Ms. Benion aims to provide equitable access to learning materials, fostering independence and confidence among her students.

The significance of Ms. Benion's efforts cannot be overstated. By creating a nurturing environment where every student feels valued and empowered, she is shaping the future of her students and instilling in them the skills they need to succeed beyond the classroom.

Congratulations, Cristina Benion, on your well-deserved recognition! Your dedication to inclusive education sets an inspiring example for us all.
