ANSONIA Amy Brejwo started teaching at Emmett O’Brien Technical High School in 2019 and already made her mark: She has just been named the school’s Teacher of the Year.
Principal Laurie LeBouthillier made the announcement over the intercom two weeks ago during the last school period of the day. Brejwo, a literature teacher at the school’s literacy lab, was showing her students how to use prefixes, she said.
The announcement came as a shock: “Wait a minute, did she just say my name?” Brejwo said she thought to herself at the time. “I mean, this is only my second year here.”
