Each year, Jessamine County Schools recognize one teacher from each school as the Teacher of the Year. Each school’s TOY will then complete a classroom observation and an interview to be considered for the Jessamine County Teacher of the Year in the categories of elementary, middle, and high. The district TOYs are recognized at our district opening day and go on to represent our county in the statewide Teacher of the Year process. Nominations will be open from January 16 - 26.
Please submit your nominations for West Jessamine Middle School Teacher of the Year using the link below.
