Teacher of the Year nominations open
Teacher of the Year nominations open
Nominations are now open for the 2022 Minnesota Teacher of the Year award, and remain open through Nov. 15.
Nominations can be submitted online by accessing a simple nomination form on www.educationminnesota.org.
Eligible nominees must meet these criteria:
Teach in a public or nonpublic Pre-K through 12th-grade school or ECFE or Adult Basic Education program, working at least 50 percent of the time directly with students.
Hold a bachelor’s degree and a Minnesota teaching license.
Have completed five years of teaching by the nomination deadline.
Intend to teach during the 2022-23 school year.
The Minnesota Teacher of the Year is in its 58th year as the state’s official recognition program honoring excellence in education.
Education Minnesota organizes and underwrites the program, which means the union handles only the business of running the program, not the selection process.
Program and award support also comes from Education Minnesota ESI, Educators Lifetime Solutions, EFS Advisors, the Harvard Club of Minnesota Foundation, SMART Technologies and United Educators Credit Union.
