Susan Mangin, CTE teacher at Heritage High School, has received the Washington Industrial Technology Education Association Teacher of the Year Award.
Mangin teaches architecture, engineering, and manufacturing classes at Heritage, and has taught for 16 years. Last year, Mangin’s manufacturing-class project culminated in the mass production of 40 wooden toy trucks, 20 of which were donated to the Clark County YWCA SafeChoice program for children in families affected by domestic violence. Mangin was among the first teachers trained in the pre-engineering program. Integral pieces of her program have been duplicated at all four Evergreen School District high schools.
