Excellent educators

Claremont has a grand tradition of excellent educators doing wonderful things for the community. Often, their hard work goes unnoticed outside of the classroom, but every now and then they get some recognition.

School Board Member and teacher Steven Llanusa was nominated by the Colton Joint Unified School District for the "Employee Recognition Award."

Llanusa has been a Teacher on assignment at Colton's Science and Technology Magnet School, helping teachers master the software and internet resources in all of the content areas and helping the school become proficient in the different technological hardware introduced to the classrooms.

“Although I didn’t’ win the award,” Llanusa said. “I was proud to learn that my work has inspired my peers.”

Also, from Claremont Graduate University, longtime Claremont resident and former CGU president John Maguire was named as a recipient of a Fulbright National Lifetime Achievement Award.
