The Teacher of the Year program is a special initiative to honor educators who go above and beyond, impacting every student and embodying the traits of an exceptional teacher. Spearman ISD is lucky to have so many dedicated and inspiring educators on its team. Staff members from each campus had the chance to nominate one teacher who truly exemplifies the qualities of a top-tier educator.
The nominated teachers will proudly represent their campuses, and one outstanding individual will be chosen as the District Teacher of the Year. This winner will then move on to compete for Region 16 Teacher of the Year in August 2025.
