The process to select the 2026–2027 TCPS Teacher of the Year and Support Staff of the Year has begun!

Is there a teacher or member of the TCPS support staff who is truly outstanding, has made a significant impact on your family, and/or goes above and beyond in their commitment as a professional? The Teacher of the Year and Support Staff of the Year programs are a fantastic way to recognize educators who exemplify excellence.

Any individual within the school system or any member of the community may nominate a candidate to apply to be Talbot’s Teacher of the Year or Support Staff of the Year. Nominations for both Teacher of the Year and Support Staff of the Year are due by January 16, 2026. Click on the link below for details, eligibility information, and nomination forms.
