Take part in a 47-year tradition, nominate someone special for 2023 Kane County Educator of the Year. Nominees should be exceptionally skillful and dedicated individuals in any Kane County school, public or private, pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, who are planning to continue an active role in education.
Candidates should have the respect and admiration of students, parents, and co-workers. They should play an active and useful role in their communities as well as in the schools, and often distinguish themselves as leaders. Their most important quality should be their superior ability to inspire the love of learning in students of all backgrounds and abilities.
Regional Superintendent Patricia Dal Santo commented on the Educator of the Year experience saying, “Every year we have so many wonderful professionals nominated. Seeing how much each person’s expertise shine in the education profession warms my heart. It truly highlights the proverb (it takes a village to raise a child) to a higher level.”
Applicant nominations are reviewed each year by student teachers, retired teachers, university representatives, business representatives, and national board-certified teachers. Deadline to nominate someone is March 17th.
Along with nominees, school district representatives are cordially invited to a formal dinner on May 5th at the Q Center, 1405 North Fifth Ave., St. Charles, IL. Social hour begins at 5:30pm with dinner being served at 6:30pm.
