Cassandra Debottis, who teaches Advanced Biology and Pathophysiology, was named the campus’s Teacher of the Year. Over 13 years of teaching, Debottis has been a finalist for Teacher of the Year four times.
“My previous school at Klein Oak, I made it to the top two,” said Debottis, who is in her fourth year at Kingwood Park. “And then here, I think this is the only time I knew I was in the top two.”
Debottis got the news that she had officially won Teacher of the Year on Thursday morning. Her husband Sean Debottis received the news on Wednesday so that he and their two little girls Evelyn and Bella Debottis could surprise their mom at school on the day of the announcement. Cassandra Debottis said it was perfect to have her family at the celebration because they always support her and what she does for the school.
