Kendall Toyota proudly continued its commitment to supporting education by donating a brand-new Toyota Corolla to Miami-Dade County Public Schools Teacher of the Year, Roberto Rabelo. The donation recognizes Rabelo’s outstanding dedication to education, mentorship, and student success throughout his distinguished career.
Rabelo, a social studies and civics teacher at South Miami Middle Community School and a 37-year veteran educator, was recently named the Miami-Dade County Public Schools 2027 Francisco R. Walker Teacher of the Year. Known for inspiring students through his innovative “DWOW Mindset of Success: Do What Others Won’t,” Rabelo has helped improve academic outcomes while championing social-emotional learning and community service initiatives.
Kendall Toyota served as a signature sponsor of the Teacher of the Year recognition program and presented Rabelo with the keys to his new Corolla, helping support his continued dedication to students and the community. The partnership reflects Kendall Toyota’s longstanding mission to give back to local educators and celebrate those shaping the next generation of leaders.
In addition to the vehicle presentation, Kendall Toyota also participated in the recent United Teachers of Dade picnic held Saturday, February 7, where educators, families, and community members gathered to celebrate teaching excellence and honor Rabelo’s achievement as Teacher of the Year. The event highlighted the critical role educators play in strengthening Miami-Dade County and fostering student success across the district.
United Teachers of Dade represents more than 25,000 educators and school employees throughout Miami-Dade County and continues to advocate for quality education, teacher support, and safe learning environments for students.
Kendall Toyota and Bean Automotive Group remain dedicated to giving back through educational initiatives, charitable partnerships, and community support programs aimed at enriching the lives of students and educators across Miami-Dade County.
