NOW ACCEPTING NOMINATIONS: Sisters of Charity Teacher of the Year Award -

We are blessed to have excellent teachers in our children's lives at OLP, especially over the last couple of years with additional challenges. Our teachers sacrifice so much to dedicate their skills to provide our children with a quality education rich in the Catholic faith.  

 Over the next few weeks, please take a few minutes to complete the nomination for the teacher who has made a significant impact on your child's education. 

Why is this called The Sisters of Charity Award?

The Sisters of Charity were instrumental in founding our school in 1939. Members of the Sisters of Charity taught our first students and, with Father F. E. Hagedorn, pastor, helped create the great school we have become today. The Sisters of Charity Award for excellence in Catholic Education bridges our past accomplishments and the promise of our future by recognizing outstanding performance by one of our talented teachers. This honor is awarded annually.

Dedicated teachers who believe that faith and academics are equally important are among the greatest gifts we find within Our Lady of the Presentation school. Let us take this time to recognize them! 

Submitted nominations are due by Friday, January 7th, by 3:00 p.m. -- Nomination Form
