Educators inspire, support and exhibit unwavering confidence in their students. To recognize the career commitment made by educators in the region, UPIKE annually recognizes a select group of passionate and service-minded educators in its Distinguished Educators Hall of Fame.
The prestigious recognition honors those whose contributions to learning have inspired generations of students and made a significant impact in the field of education. Nominated by their peers, former students or community members, the 2019 group of professionals will be inducted on Tuesday, October 22, at 6 p.m. in Booth Auditorium.
