Teacher of the Year Celebration
April 23, 2026 | 4:30PM - 6:00PM | Higley Center for the Performing Arts
Each year, Higley Unified School District comes together to celebrate our incredible teachers. The Teacher of the Year Celebration is a night dedicated to recognizing the passion, creativity, and lasting impact our educators bring to classrooms across the district.
Want a sneak peek? Check out our highlight video featuring past Teachers of the Year from each of our schools. This short preview offers a glimpse into the heartfelt, personalized videos created to honor these outstanding individuals and share their stories.
This celebration is one of our most meaningful traditions, shining a spotlight on the educators who go above and beyond every single day. It also provides a unique opportunity for local businesses and community partners to show their support through sponsorship, all while gaining visibility and connecting with the community.
We’re proud to honor the people who make a difference in the lives of our students and we can’t wait to celebrate them again this year!
