Your Nomination Makes a Difference!
Thank you for taking the time to nominate a NPPS Employee!
Must have a letter of recommendation explaining why this Teacher/Employee Member/Administrator deserves to be named one of the following: "Teacher of the Year Prek-5th, Teacher of the Year 6th-12th, Classified Employee of the Year, Administrator of the Year and Rookie of Year"
The list of teachers and employees were first nominated within their building throughout the year(August-April). Then from the building level they were elevated to the district level where the district and foundation reviewed recommendations. There are many deserving teachers and employees that dedicate their lives to ensuring students are reaching their fullest potential. This is never an easy process for any of us involved. Those employees that are recognized in May of 2025 will be eligible next school year (2025-2026) for these awards.
What we look for:
- Dedication to the teaching profession or their specific duties at NPPS
- Innovation in curriculum and/or style of teaching
- Relationship to students, parents & colleagues
- Contributions to the educational community, to subject area, to student accomplishments
- Recognition by peers & other awards received
- Other information or personal characteristics you believe is important
Rookie (New) teacher of the year is someone who has been with the district two years or less. This teacher has gone above and beyond as a new teacher. They have navigated a new school with a positive attitude.
Classified employees are those who are supporting the administrators, teachers and students in all buildings across the District.
If you are nominating multiple for Teacher PreK-5th, Teacher 6th-12th and Classified, you will need to enter them separately.
Before you start please have a letter prepared to upload or send it by email to nppsf@nppsd.org. The subject line of the email should include the nominated persons last name.
