Principal Marco French Joins LA Milken Educators

 

 

Principal Marco French is emotional as he addresses the assembly gathered to watch his Milken Educator Award surprise, with Milken Educator Awards Founder Lowell Milken and Louisiana Superintendent of Education Dr. Cade Brumley behind him. "I stand on the backs of giants, those who have come before me with this Award," Marco says. "Everything I have in me, I try to pour back into the people that I serve—my students, my staff, this district, all the people who are here right now supporting me." He adds, "I didn't choose education. Education chose me. It's my calling. I couldn't run from it if I tried to. This is what I truly love doing."
