Imagine School at Town Center Teacher of the Year Joan Soldano shares her love of science with the school's seventh grade students.
Soldano had retired from teaching in New York — where she was a 2010 state Teacher of the Year finalist and the 2014 New York State Air Force Association’s Teacher of the Year — before coming to Florida
"After moving to Florida, she determined that her heart and passion for students and education was still alive," Town Center Principal James Menard wrote in an email about Soldano's nomination for Teacher of the Year.
Soldano, who holds a master's degree in special education and teaching and is a state-certified exceptional student education teacher, has served in multiple roles at Imagine School, teaching eighth grade English language arts and ESE support in addition to her current role as seventh grade science teacher.
"In addition to working with students, Soldano also serves as a peer coach, helping share her passion for education with our middle school teachers," Menard wrote.
