Below are our Teacher and Support Staff Team Members of the month. Teacher of the Year Mr. Matthew Migliazza We are thrilled to celebrate Matthew Migliazza, affectionately known as Mr. M, as UCP Pine Hills' Teacher of the Year. In his inaugural year at our school, Mr. M quickly became known for his dedication to and innovation in education. As a first-grade teacher, he has fostered a love for learning and cultivated a deeper connection to nature among his students. Mr. M is renowned as the "plant guy" for his tireless efforts in establishing and nurturing our campus garden, where he teaches his students the importance of responsibility and care through hands-on gardening experiences. Before joining UCP Pine Hills, Mr. M served in rural Mississippi as part of Teach for America, where he honed his skills in creating engaging learning environments tailored to diverse student needs. Here at UCP Pine Hills, he has continued to excel, particularly in developing fundamental reading skills in a manner that is both positive and relatable to his young learners. Mr. M's commitment to his students' growth and well-being, both academically and personally, exemplifies the values of our school community. We are incredibly proud to have Mr. M on our team and congratulate him on this well-deserved recognition as Teacher of the Year. Team Member of the Year Ms. Regina Nguyen With great pride and gratitude, we honor Ms. Regina Nguyen as our UCP Pine Hills Team Member of the Year for 2025–2026! Ms. Nguyen is the heart of our campus—serving as the School-Based Therapy Supervisor, she does far more than support students’ speech and language development. She’s a cornerstone of our school community, leading the morning news crew, contributing to every school-wide event, and giving her whole heart to the growth and success of every student. Ms. Nguyen’s journey at UCP Pine Hills is a testament to her unwavering dedication. She began her Panther journey as a volunteer, transitioned to an Instructional Assistant Teacher, then advanced to a Speech-Language Pathology Assistant (SLPA), and now proudly serves in a leadership role as our Therapy Manager. Over her time at UCP Pine Hills, she has continuously grown alongside our students, always rising to meet the needs of our school. She is a shining example of what it means to be #TrulyAPanther—steadfast, compassionate, involved, and always putting students first. Her commitment, positivity, and passion impact everyone lucky enough to work with her.

Both are free of charge. ▪ Traditional schools are “zoned”, and you need to live in that zone to attend. ▪ Charter Schools are schools of choice – you can choice to attend regardless of where you live (there are priorities for children living in the county the school is located in). Charter schools were created to be more innovative and have more flexibility on how they deliver the curriculum/instruction. Private Schools do not have any legal obligation to follow a child’s Individual Education Plan (IEP) in any way (i.e. provide therapy, accommodations, etc.). ▪ They also are not required to have any background checks for their staff or any specific credentials for teachers/staff. ▪ Parents generally pay tuition for private schools (though sometimes vouchers cover tuition)
