Each year, The Alliance recognizes outstanding teachers
in Duval County. The process focuses on choosing the best and the brightest
teacher at each public school for recognition at a celebration called The
EDDY Awards. To compete, a teacher must submit a lengthy written document,
be observed in the classroom and be interviewed. The process alone increases
awareness of the “best practices” that can be employed at each school in
the system. Both the process and celebration involve the community, principals,
regional superintendents and teachers.
Recognition begins at the school level, progresses
to the regional, and culminates at the district level with The EDDY Awards
gala – a black-tie event lauding the county’s teachers most deserving
of recognition. The gala captures a snapshot of the best of the best in
public education and highlights great accomplishments in the Duval County
Public School System.
