Jaime Mejia

Congratulations to Jaime Mejia! A Foreign Language Education graduate, he was lauded for his communication skills and classroom engagement and was offered a job in his placement school before even completing the semester! His clinical educator couldn’t speak highly enough about him – “In every interaction, Jaime demonstrates creativity, compassion, and a heart for service. He brings innovative ideas to the classroom, fosters a culture of respect and inclusion, and remains grounded in his mission to break down barriers for multilingual learners. Without a doubt, Jaime Mejia represents the very best of what future educators should be.”
