Reminder: Applications for Kansas Teacher of the Year close Nov. 7

School districts still have time to nominate one exemplary elementary classroom teacher and one exemplary secondary classroom teacher for the 2024 Kansas Teacher of the Year program.

Not only does participating in this program demonstrate that your district values exceptional teaching, but you will also be providing critical professional development opportunities for your nominees. Participants tell us year after year that this program is life-changing and has made them better teachers. 

Principals and superintendents do not submit a nomination entry form identifying their candidate(s) but will be required to approve and sign the nomination form completed by their candidate(s). 

The 2024 Kansas Teacher of the Year nomination packet is available on the KSDE website at https://www.ksde.org/Portals/0/Communications/2024-KTOY-NOMINATION%201.pdf?ver=2022-08-08-140446-420.

Applications must be submitted using KSDE’s Kansas Teacher of the Year online authenticated application program, which closes Nov. 7, 2022. 

For more information about this program, please contact Tamla Miller by email at tmiller@ksde.org or by phone at (785) 296-4950.
