On Thursday, April 3, Abilene ISD proudly recognized the second round of recipients in the district's new Employee Awards Program. These awards honor outstanding educators and staff who exemplify the district’s Strategic Priorities–fostering collaboration, promoting active classroom engagement, and building strong partnerships with the school community.
Employees are recognized in six categories: teacher, new teacher, student support, auxiliary, paraprofessional, and substitute. Recipients are nominated by their peers and selected through a committee review process.
Congratulations to the following individuals, and thank you for your dedication to our students and families!
A special thank you to First Financial Bank for generously sponsoring the AISD Employee Awards and providing a gift card to each recipient.
