Excellence in Teaching Awards

Since 1989 the Excellence in Teaching Awards Program has recognized the innovative and outstanding teaching that takes place every day in classrooms across Alberta.  This program provides Albertans with a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the many contributions teachers make to student learning.

Parents, teacher-colleagues, principals, superintendents and all Albertans are encouraged to show their appreciation by nominating an outstanding teacher or principal for an Excellence in Teaching Award.
