The Teacher of the Year program is designed to honor and recognize excellent teachers working in the Alameda Unified School District (AUSD). This is a unique opportunity to provide well-deserved recognition for the whole teaching profession, as well as for the distinguished teacher that is nominated. Parents, students, staff, and community members have the opportunity to nominate any pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade teacher. A selection committee consisting of teachers, administrators, a school board member, and a community member will determine the AUSD Teacher of the Year for 2011-12. The AUSD Teacher of the Year will be formally recognized by the Board of Education in May of 2012. The selected teacher will be honored by the Alameda County Office of Education in the Fall of 2012 and becomes eligible for the Alameda County Teacher of the Year Award and the State Teacher of the Year Award. The nomination form is available by clicking here and is due to the Principal's office by February 22, 2012 by 3:00 PM.
