As part of Teacher Appreciation Week, Elk Point-Jefferson High School proudly celebrated one of its own on May 8, 2025, during a special signing ceremony recognizing students committed to entering the teaching profession. Among them was senior Leonel Carrillo, who officially signed his intent to attend Dakota Wesleyan University in Mitchell, South Dakota, where he plans to pursue a degree in education. Leonel has been a dedicated member of the Elk Point-Jefferson Educators Rising Chapter for the past two years. Through this program, he has attended multiple college expos and engaged in meaningful, hands-on learning experiences that have deepened his understanding of—and passion for—the field of education. It was during one of these events, held at DWU, that Leonel discovered a strong connection to the university’s community and educational philosophy, solidifying his decision to continue his journey there. EPJ Educators Rising advisor Karlene Stabe shared heartfelt words about Leonel’s character and promise:
“Leonel is a very caring, passionate student with a bright future in education. It has been a pleasure mentoring him these past two years and watching his growth. I truly believe he will be an incredible addition to the teaching profession, and I am extremely proud of all he has accomplished.”
EPJ is honored to celebrate Leonel’s commitment to shaping future generations and thanks him for choosing a path that will impact lives for years to come.
Please note that Monday's School Board meeting time has been moved up to 4:30 PM instead of its normal time at 5:30 PM.
