Excellence in Education

As part of the mission of the Madison Education Foundation, the Excellence in Education Award is given annually. This award is given to recognize and reward teachers who demonstrate outstanding innovation, dedication, and professionalism to positively impact the academic lives of our youth.

Award candidates are nominated each year by their peers, administrators, students and parents in the district. Nominated candidates are reviewed by members of the Madison Education Foundation Board and the award recipients are announced in their respective class.

Nominations open when school reopens after winter break, and close January 31. Awardees receive a $500 honorarium and a $500 contribution to their school classroom account to be used for travel, classroom supplies, or equipment.
