Much like our students, teachers and school leaders deserve to be recognized for their hard work and dedication. The EL Education Klingenstein Teacher Award and Silverberg Leadership Award lift up work that is often unseen while celebrating its impact on students.
Every day, outstanding educators bring EL Education's vision to life in classrooms and schools across the country—engaging students in work that is challenging, adventurous and meaningful so that learning and achievement can flourish.
The Klingenstein Teacher Award and Silverberg Leadership Award were established to celebrate this exceptional teaching and leadership.
Candidates are nominated by their school communities. Each year, one teacher and one school leader are selected from a diverse pool of educators who best exemplify the spirit and values of EL Education and give voice to the hundreds of wonderful educators in our community.
