As the surprise starts to sink in, New Mexico Secretary of Public Education Dr. Arsenio Romero gives Milken Award recipient Ashli Knoell a congratulatory hug.

"I am excited for Ashli Knoell, the Cleveland High School students and staff, and the Rio Rancho community that she is being recognized for her incredible work in the classroom," says Dr. Romero. "She has proven to be an innovative teacher, as seen in her Natural Disaster inclusion class and her work with STEAM + Robotics. She sets a great example for her students. Her leadership qualities and commitment to collaboration with her colleagues make her exactly the kind of educator New Mexico students deserve."
