The details
According to its website, the CEF helps to support teachers in the district in three ways:
- End-of-year appreciation gift: A financial gift given to every classroom teacher, including Librarians, CARE, ESL and SPED teachers at the end of the school year. In 2024, teachers received $1,200.
- Teachers of the Year: Each campus Teacher of the Year receives a $1,000 cash award and the two district-wide Teachers of the Year receive a $5,000 cash award as a thank you for going above and beyond.
- Teacher scholarships: Cash scholarships are offered for teachers and para-professionals going back to school to further their education at an accredited university.
