Meanwhile in April, Coconino County Superintendent of Schools Cheryl Mango-Paget will present the 10th Annual Coconino County Teacher of the Year Awards, which also includes the 5th Annual Rookie Teacher of the Year Awards and 2nd Annual Lifetime Achievement Award.
More than 20 teachers have been nominated for the honors, representing a diverse range of schools in northern Arizona, including: Coconino High School, DeMiguel Elementary, Flagstaff Christian School, Flagstaff High School, Flagstaff Junior Academy, Heritage Elementary, Kinsey Elementary, Knoles Elementary, Marshall Elementary, Montessori School of Flagstaff, Mount Elden Middle School, Northland Prep, Puente de Hozho, Sinagua Middle School, Tse’Yaato’ High School, Williams Elementary/Middle School, and Williams High School.
The event on April 20 will begin at 5 pm at the Doubletree by Hilton in Flagstaff.
It is good seeing our educators honored throughout northern Arizona for keeping our students engaged and instilling in them not only the knowledge they need, but those critical thinking and soft skills required as the future employees of our local businesses.
