Heidi Albin, You're a KS Milken Educator!

 

 

Therapy dog Kinsey enjoys a moment in the spotlight as veteran Milken Educators hold up recipient Heidi Albin's oversized $25,000 Milken Educator Award check. Albin raised funds to acquire Kinsey, who helps students at Complete High School Maize cope with depression and anxiety. Loving and being loved by Kinsey has unified students and teachers, leading to a less stressful environment that supports academic success and student retention.
