Taylor High School teacher wins Lifetime Achievement Award during Sunday ceremony
'The Lifetime Achievement Award salutes teachers with more than 20 years of experience,' ceremony organizers said.
Vicki Rowe, an Advanced Placement English teacher at Taylor High School, received $25,000 in cash and a $25,000 grant for her school.
The ceremony was held in downtown Austin, and hundreds of educators and community leaders were in attendance, according to organizers.
Ceremony organizers said $480,000 in cash and grants were awarded to:
Six teachers
Two counselors
Two principals
One early childhood facility
One public school board
Two school districts
'At a time when public school educators face many challenges, it's critically important that we honor the extraordinary individuals who are inspiring the next generation of Texans. Their work not only changes lives—it defines the future of our state,' said Winell Herron, H-E-B Senior VP of Public Affairs, Diversity and Environmental Affairs.

Would You Wear the Dimes Square T-Shirt?
This week, H&M released a T-shirt referring to a small area of Lower Manhattan known by some as Dimes Square. The neighborhood, named for Dimes, a restaurant on Canal Street, emerged as a vibrant hot spot in the early days of the pandemic, serving as the backdrop for sometimes maskless gatherings of the city's writers, models, actors, artists and other unaffiliated provocateurs-about-town. Over the years, Dimes Square has become no less scene-y but a lot more ritzy, and it's now home to a swanky hotel, Nine Orchard, and upscale wine bars. Though H&M seems to be trying to project 'downtown cool' with this e-commerce image — down to the sunglasses and baggy jeans — these days many of the bars and restaurants are populated by Zyn-popping finance workers. Far from having a unified look, Dimes Square is an aesthetic slurry of fleece vests, streetwear, and luxury labels. In an edited conversation, members of the Styles desk — Stella Bugbee, Marie Solis and Alex Vadukul — and the Times critic Jon Caramanica, discuss this perplexing garment, which appears to be sold out online. STELLA BUGBEE: First of all, did any of you try to buy one? ALEX VADUKUL: I did not. And I'll be sleeping fine at night with that decision. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
