The district’s Teacher of the Year Committee will review nomination materials and then vote to select three elementary and secondary finalists for 2017 Teacher of the Year honors. After finalist group interviews, the district committee votes to pick its top candidate at each teaching level.
Superintendent of Schools Scott R. Muri, Ed.D., will recognize the district finalists and then announce the new Elementary and Secondary Teacher of the Year during this year’s Service Awards celebration, which will be held May 9 at the downtown Minute Maid Park facility during a Houston Astros baseball game.
As district winners, the two teachers receive a trophy-style Golden Apple Award as well as other awards and recognitions, including a $1,000 cash award and a $2,000 professional growth stipend.
SBISD’s Teachers of the Year represent the school district in regional competition. If successful at the regional level, they advance to compete for a top state honor – Texas Teacher of the Year.
During the past three decades, SBISD has had four teachers named regional and state Teacher of the Year winners. Numerous district-level educators have either been regional-level finalists or earned separate district, state and national awards.
