Anselmo-Merna Public School

Congratulations to Ms. Webel, our very first Coyote Call Award recipient! 🐾 The Coyote Call Award is a way for us to recognize the outstanding contributions by adults in our building— who work to educate, inspire, and uplift our students each and every day. “I’d like to nominate Ms. Webel. She helps us every day to improve in reading, English, grammar, and understanding why these skills matter. While teaching her classes, she also prepares us for important tests like the MAP and ACT. She’s encouraging, understanding, and always willing to help with questions. Ms. Webel is easy to talk to and makes school enjoyable. Her bubbly personality lights up the room, and I think most students genuinely look forward to her class.” - Ms. Sadie Stewart
