Teacher of the Month

The Twin Falls Education Foundation has a “Teacher of the Month” program.

Each month, October-March, they will accept nominations for certified teachers, both elementary and secondary, that go above and beyond.  Anyone is able to nominate a teacher, from current students, parents, past students, etc.  The only stipulation is you may not nominate yourself or a family member.

The nominations will be reviewed by a committee of 5 individuals, and each month 1 elementary teacher and one secondary teacher will be selected. Those individuals will go into the pool for “Teacher of the Year” and will be honored at our Gala on April 10^th.

You can call the Foundation if you have any questions at 733-5400.
