Teacher of the Year
Each year, teachers from all 13 schools are nominated by their peers and colleagues to represent their schools and the excellence of our teachers in the district. Through an extensive and thorough nomination process, each teacher is recognized by their schools and the district. One of 13 teachers will chosen as the district representative and will go on for the chance to be named the Teacher of the Year at the regional and state levels.
Throughout the year, these teachers will serve as a cohort to have conversation with the Superintendent to create a great environment for teachers in the district.
