Teacher of the Year Gala

It’s time to celebrate Sarasota County’s incredible teachers! 

Great teachers shape what’s possible for every student and Teacher of the Year is our chance to give them the celebration they deserve. 

In partnership with Sarasota County Schools, the Education Foundation of Sarasota County will honor outstanding educators with the Teacher of the Year Gala at Mote Science Education Aquarium on December 7th.

Think Academy Awards for teachers...an unforgettable evening featuring a three-course dinner, drinks, awards and special moments celebrating the educators who make an incredible impact on Sarasota County students every day. 

Join us for one of the most meaningful celebrations of the year and help us shine the spotlight on our teachers! 

Sponsorship opportunities are available.
