The Regional Office of Education #33 welcomed 174 guests to this year’s annual Excellence in Education Banquet. This year we recognized 58 educators who were nominated by our nine area school districts. Our office is honored to recognize the excellent work the educators in our region do every day. Educators are the pillars of our communities, and this event was intended to show this appreciation and gratitude to these amazing people working in our region’s schools. We are committed to this celebration of excellence and encourage you to reach out to your child’s teachers and let them know just how much they are appreciated.
Thank you,
Jodi L. Scott, Regional Superintendent, Lori Loving, Assistant Regional Superintendent, Kathryn Jennings, Director of ROE Services
