Congratulations to our Trinity Prize recipients!

The Trinity Prize for Excellence in Teaching honors the best public school teachers in the San Antonio area. North East ISD has no shortage of these exemplary educators. 

On Tuesday, Feb. 28, we celebrated our campus Trinity Prize nominees during a special ceremony. 

Nominees from each campus were honored and Johnson High School Japanese Teacher Dr. Yuka Kato was recognized as NEISD’s overall Trinity Prize nominee. She will represent our District at the citywide Trinity Prize For Excellence ceremony in May. 

Dr. Kato with Dr. Maika and Mrs. Shannon Grona
