Luz Febres-Brown was nominated by Carlos Fernando Domingues, the parent of a student.
"Ms. Febres welcomed our daughter with open arms, and we noticed the above-normal evolution in her development. Every day, our daughter had a word of affection related to Ms. Febres. This was the result of a reciprocity received in the classroom. With Ms. Febres, our daughter overcame all the difficulties she had with being Brazilian and adapting to the American language. Today, we can say that Ms. Febres made a difference in our lives and will always remain in our hearts," said Domingues.
