    Living Our DPS: Joe Lucero

    12/5/2024 Comments (-1)-1
    Joe Lucero
    Teacher, Traylor Academy
    Students First
    "Mr. Lucero has been a steady force for doing what's best for kids and community for over two decades at Traylor. Joe leads with students first because he provides so many opportunities in and out of the classroom to help students build confidence, self esteem, character and good habits. He uses student leaders to demonstrate new tasks, has a color guard group each morning, and has older students lead games at field day for younger students. In Joe's PE classroom, you'll hear positive affirmations, talks about sportsmanship and many connections to real life. In addition, Mr. Lucero shines at community collaboration. His events, like the Pumpkin Run, draw hundreds of visitors each year. He also collaborates with businesses to secure extra funding and donations to keep equipment and materials refreshed and in good condition for our students. You can really see the impact he's made when students come back after graduation to visit him and light up. We are so incredibly fortunate to have Mr. Lucero in our school family."
    -- Jenn Norris, Traylor Academy
