Jeff Stear
Jeff Stear (Milby HS) and Astra Zeno (Young Women’s College Preparatory Academy) were recently named two of only three finalists for the IPAA/PESA Teacher of the Year award.
Nominees were eligible for consideration if they worked at one of the five campuses in Texas with an active petroleum academy, through a partnership with the Independent Petroleum Academy of America (IPPA) and the Petroleum Equipment Suppliers Association (PESA).
Four HISD high schools (Milby, Westside, YWCPA, and the Energy Institute) and one in Fort Worth (Southwest) currently offer that program.
As finalists, Stear and Zeno each received a check for $1,000 and a framed certificate.
