Employee of the Year

  • Each year, the Christina School District honors outstanding educators and employees through the Teachers and Employee Champions of the Year awards. After a rigorous selection process, each school building selects a Teacher of the Year, who then competes for the prestigious title of District Teacher of the Year. Additionally, the district recognizes Employee Champions of the Year from each classified employee group, with the winner going on to compete for the District Educational Support Professional of the Year. Here, we proudly showcase our past winners, celebrating their dedication and commitment to educational excellence.
