Staff Spotlight: Steve Kakes

At Austin Public Schools, our mission is to inspire, empower, and accelerate every one of our learners, and we know that the only way for us to reach this goal is through the efforts of all our incredibly hard-working staff.  

In this week’s Staff Spotlight, we’re highlighting IJ Holton Intermediate School Special Education Teacher Steve Kakes.

"Mr. Kakes always goes above and beyond for his students. He is always able to adapt and overcome obstacles to make sure his students have everything they need to be successful. Along with being a great teacher, he is also a great, kind, and helpful colleague!"

Congratulations!
