Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a high school mathematics teacher, failed to establish that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker. Although praised for her teaching skills at a local level, the evidence of awards and testimonials did not demonstrate a wider impact or influence on the field of education that would justify a national interest waiver.
