The Bossier Parish Pre-Educator Club hosted the Mock Educators Rising Competition at BPSTIL, giving future teachers the opportunity to showcase their skills and prepare for upcoming state contests.

Following the event, students visited WT Lewis Elementary to teach special lessons in honor of Veterans Day.

Throughout the day, students demonstrated professionalism, creativity, and a strong commitment to education and community service. Many also participated in Veterans Day events earlier in the day, serving, speaking, and performing at local ceremonies before attending the competition.

The event featured multiple competition categories, including Creative Lecture, EdRising Moment, Interactive Bulletin Board, and Public Speaking, all judged by local educators and education professionals. Judges included representatives from Centenary College, LSU Shreveport, BPCC, and the Louisiana Department of Education.

Organizers expressed appreciation to the competition judges, BPSTIL administrators, WT Lewis Elementary staff, and the parents and teacher leaders who supported the event.

Dr. Tracey Burrell and Coach Reggie Digilormoe said they were proud of the students’ dedication and enthusiasm, noting that the future of education in Bossier Parish looks bright.
