Introducing the 2024-25 Site Teachers of the Year!
These educators were selected by their peers at each JPS site because of the way they connect with students, mentor colleagues, innovate in their classrooms, and consistently demonstrate the mission, vision, and values of Jenks Public Schools. These ten individuals are relentless advocates for students and public education. Our community is so fortunate to have teachers like these (and many others), who inspire our nextgeneration of leaders with their genuine care and passion for what they do.
Spend just a few minutes in one of their classrooms and it's immediately evident how skilled these teachers are and how much they love their jobs. They lead with heart. They are continuously improving. They embody everything a parent could ask for in their student's teacher. They honor their profession every day, and we are so proud to call them our Site Teachers of the Year.
Please join us in congratulating them!
