Why is Julia's mother called Miss Elena as a teacher when she's married?

In some YouTube videos of material where Elmo, Rosita, Abby and Wes have Julia's mother as a teacher, Julia's mother is called Miss Elena, and the description of the video refers to her as Miss Elena. Why do they call Elena Miss when she's married? For your explanation, the marital-status-neutral title is Ms. in which the one s is pronounced z as in zebra, and the one that is only for single women is Miss, in which the double s is pronounced s as in snake. A similar use of the wrong title was in Between the Lions when Cleo as a singer was called "Miss Cleo Lion" (the lyrics to one of the songs with that introduction via the Wayback Machine showed the wrong title). However, Lionel's friend Gus called Cleo Mrs. Lion (which is only for married women). All in all, why have these used the wrong title?

I haven't seen the video in question, but at least in the U.S., when a teacher in particular goes by their first name at school instead of their last, they're addressed as Miss, especially by younger kids.

Why don't they address them as the aforementioned marital-status neutral title that is Ms. where the one s is pronounced z as in zebra? You can find the videos on YouTube.

I feel like you could've condensed this post into one or two sentences, but to answer your question, I don't know, but it's not keeping me up at night.
