The Caesar Rodney School District is accepting nominations for the 2026 District Teacher of the Year.
Who is eligible to nominate a teacher?
We encourage staff members to nominate teachers in the District who have been role models for other teachers and students, active in District activities, and have played a vital role in developing the curriculum which guides our students and classrooms.
We encourage parents and community members to nominate teachers whom they recognize for their outstanding teaching techniques and their love of students and knowledge.
We encourage students to nominate teachers who are or have been positive influences in their lives, have made school a “great” place to be, and have shared wonderful experiences with them through the educational process.
How do you nominate a teacher?
Nomination forms are available in each school building’s main office and on the Caesar Rodney website. Completed nomination forms are to be returned to the nominee’s school.
