Superintendent Tricia Mooney said Berger has been a fierce advocate for students.
âYou have almost singlehandedly grown all of our CTE programs with your passion for our kids and for opportunities for kids,â she said in a video where she surprised Berger in his classroom with a basket of candy, saying she was thrilled that Bergerâs colleagues had chosen him for the honor.
The video played during the Hermiston Chamber of Commerceâs Distinguished Citizens Awards on Wednesday, Feb. 24.
Berger was chosen from a pool of each schoolâs educators of the year. Mooney said he always has a smile on his face, works hard to find opportunities to get each student more involved in the school and comes ready with good ideas.
