In her new role as Regional Superintendent of Schools, Kathryn Jennings, with a dedicated team at the Regional Office of Education #33, will host the sixth annual Excellence in Education Banquet on May 7th, 2026. Regional Office of Education #33 is proud to continue its tradition of the Excellence in Education Banquet, recognizing local educators and school administration for their hard work throughout the year.
Our region’s school districts nominated certified and non-certified educators for this year’s awards, finalized by a team at the Regional Office of Education #33.
This event honors Board of Education members, school support staff, teachers, retiring educators, and administrators from Henderson, Knox, Mercer, and Warren Counties. We hope this night will shine a light on the pillars of our schools and show them what they mean to ROE #33 and our communities.

- Retiring Support Staff with 20+ years of service
- Retiring Educators with 20+ years of service
- Board of Education members with 12+ years of service, including retirees
