Gus Birdwell’s Alejandra Alvarez Named 2026 District Teacher of the Year
Spearman ISD has officially named Alejandra “Alex” Alvarez the 2026 District Teacher of the Year, a prestigious honor that recognizes her commitment to the profession. Selected through a peer-nomination process, Alvarez was celebrated not just for her results in the classroom, but for a leadership style that colleagues describe as a "phenomenal force for good."
The award comes on the heels of a major professional milestone for Alvarez: earning her National Board Certification. The certification is widely considered the highest credential in the teaching profession, requiring years of reflection, data analysis, and documented excellence.
"She dedicated so much time to that process, and she is so deserving of this recognition," said one fellow educator. "Her love for her students shows in everything she does. She is a stellar teacher who is always willing to change, adapt, and grow."
What sets Alvarez apart, according to those who work alongside her, is her ability to bridge the gap between high expectations and deep compassion. Alvarez is known as a "forward-thinking" leader who leans into research and new instructional methods to better serve her students.
Her nomination forms were filled with praise for her "all-around team player" attitude. Whether she is volunteering for extra-curricular activities or mentoring other teachers, her impact is felt district-wide.
"Alex is an incredible teacher," one nomination read. "She is ALWAYS using every opportunity to teach, and doing it with kindness and love. She holds students accountable, but she does it while being their biggest advocate."
Her peers summarized her influence simply: she is a "kind and good teacher" who leads with both her heart and her head.
As the 2026 District Teacher of the Year, Alvarez will serve as an ambassador for her peers, carrying the torch for Spearman ISD as she advances to the Region 16 Teacher of the Year competition this summer

Happy School Nurse’s Day!
Today, we are celebrating the incredible health professionals who keep our school community safe, healthy, and ready to learn. School nurses are so much more than "ice pack experts"—they are first responders, wellness advocates, and a vital support system for us all.
We are especially grateful for our dedicated nursing team:
Nurse Kelly: Thank you for your tireless work supporting our Elementary and Junior High students and staff. From soothing playground scrapes to navigating the busy middle school years, she handles every situation with incredible patience and heart.
Nurse Sally: A huge shout-out for looking after our High School students and staff. Beyond her work in the clinic, she is also shaping the next generation of healthcare heroes by teaching our CNA classes, sharing her expertise and passion with her students.
Thank you, Nurse Kelly and Nurse Sally, for the countless ways you look after our physical and emotional well-being every single day. We are so lucky to have you!
