Let's celebrate our amazing teachers here at Mustang Valley! Our teachers are one of a kind and let's show them how much we appreciate and love them.

Some people find their way into teaching.

For others, it keeps finding its way back to them.

Sarah Caffey didn’t start her career in the classroom. But through conversations, reflection, and a sense that something wasn’t quite right, one word kept coming up again and again.

Teaching.

And now, 11 years later, it’s clear she’s exactly where she’s meant to be.

At Mustang Valley Elementary, Sarah has built a classroom rooted in something simple, but powerful. Every student is known. Every student is valued. Every student matters.

That belief didn’t come from nowhere.

It was shaped by the teachers who poured into her. The ones who made her feel seen. The ones who built her love of reading. The ones who taught her more than just content.

Now, she’s doing the same for her students.

“She is a truly wonderful teacher… kind, patient, and full of heart. She makes each student feel seen, valued, and safe.”

That kind of impact doesn’t fade.

When Sarah found out she had been named Teacher of the Year, one of her first thoughts was of her dad, her biggest supporter. The one who would have been so proud of this moment.

And in a lot of ways, that tells you everything you need to know.

This isn’t just a job.

It’s a calling. One she’s answering every single day.

We’re proud to celebrate Sarah Caffey as Mustang Valley Elementary’s 2025–2026 Teacher of the Year.

We are so proud of our music teacher, Mrs. Abbie Billingsley. She is a Rookie Teacher of the Year Finalist for MPS. Way to go, Mrs. B!

What a night! Almost 400 Valley students/families walked through our doors tonight for our Family STEM Night! Students and their families explored various STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) activities all centered around a camping theme. It was the best night!
