Nominations are now being accepted for the 2024-25 Manitoba’s Excellence in Education Awards to recognize exceptional achievements in education.
“On World Teachers’ Day, I want to celebrate Manitoba educators across the province who work tirelessly every day to help young Manitobans learn, grow and reach their full potential,” said Education and Early Childhood Learning Minister Nello Altomare. “Manitoba’s Excellence in Education Awards provides an opportunity to celebrate the inspirational stories of K to 12 educators who make a difference. It’s an honour to recognize their dedication to their students and communities.”
Nominations are open until Dec. 5. Nominees must be educators who hold a valid, permanent Manitoba teaching certificate and work directly with kindergarten to Grade 12 students in a school setting daily.
Awards will be presented in the following categories:
- teaching excellence award;
- outstanding new teacher award;
- outstanding team collaboration award;
- outstanding school leader award; and
- premier’s award for excellence in education.
Nominations will be reviewed by a selection committee that includes representatives from across the education sector and Manitoba Education and Early Childhood Learning.
Award recipients will be honoured at a ceremony in the spring, added Altomare.
