Escuela de Guadalupe proudly celebrates Sean Cleary, our dedicated middle school teacher, for winning the 2024 Charles Redd Center Teaching Western History Award. Sean earned this honor by submitting an outstanding original lesson plan tied to this year’s conference theme: Free Soil? Migration, Dispossession, and Rising Up on Contested Ground.
As part of the Charles Redd award, Sean presented his lesson plan to educators at the conference, sharing innovative strategies that emphasize critical thinking and engagement. His lessons inspire students to explore history’s complexities, connecting past struggles with today’s challenges.
Sean’s work exemplifies the transformative power of education, and we are proud to have him at Escuela de Guadalupe.
