Is there a Tree Frog teacher or support professional who's made a difference for you? Nominate them as our Teacher or Support Professional of the year!

Is there a teacher at your or your child's school who goes above and beyond? Who inspires their students and their colleagues? Who "Raises the Bar" in everything they do? Now it's your turn to elevate them!

CCSD is now accepting nominations for our 2026-27 school-level teachers of the year! Complete the short form at bit.ly/ccsdteachernomination to spotlight the teacher or teachers you think deserve the title! Complete a separate form for each teacher you're nominating. Nominations will be accepted through August 9, and after staff voting at each school, school winners will be announced in early September and featured individually on CCSD social media in the lead-up to the announcement of the district winner in late October. So let's get those nominations going, and tell us why your nominee is the best of the best!

Mrs. Burks was an inspiration to all of us at her namesake school, and we are grateful for her joyful presence here over the years. Our Tree Frog community is sending all our love and thoughts to her family during this time.
