  Congratulations, @oonziela! She has been awarded the @ncte_cel Teacher Leader of Excellence Award. So deserving of this recognition. https://t.co/3LqBuzmsSM @ncte @ChathamHS @nerdcampnj #CELChat #sdocedchat
  So incredibly well deserved! When I think of a leader, I think of someone who empowers others. @oonziela empowers students and fellow teachers every day (also she somehow has 4 boys and I legit have a theory that she is in possession of a time turner…)
