Congrats to the winners of the 2021 LRSD Teacher of the Year contest.  They were selected from among their peers at each campus to represent the best of the best in their profession.  One teacher is selected from each elementary school, two from middle school campuses, and three from high school buildings.  An annual gala celebrating the winning teachers is held each May during the time teachers are recognized nationally.  LRSD will announce details regarding the “Crystal Awards – Teacher of the Year” Gala in the coming days.  Please take the time to send a note to your school’s winner(s) or give them a shout out on social media, using the hashtag #LRSDTOY2021.
