Although Mrs. Wilson did not walk away with the Teacher of the Year title, we are still over the moon proud of her for accomplishments thus far in her teaching career. Being in the top five is a prestigious award within itself! Thank You Mrs. Wilson for calling Sanborn Central your home. No spoilers here, read the press release to find out who brought home the Teacher of the Year title.
A note from Dr. Joseph Graves
Good morning,
Last night, a small group of educators, their families, and admirers of every stripe gathered to honor some of South Dakota’s best and brightest and to celebrate the teaching profession at the annual Teacher of the Year banquet. I never cease to be amazed at the impact of not just the people being recognized but all teachers have on their students. And how those students carry those fond memories of and appreciation for their teachers all their lives. We belong to a special profession, a line-of-work that makes a genuine and often profound difference in the lives of children. Fundamentally, teaching matters. We matter.
Thanks are not enough for all you do, but thank you, nevertheless.
Congratulations to our 2025 South Dakota Teacher of the Year Amy Verhelst and the four other Region Teachers of the Year. You can read the press release here. I also invite you to watch these videos of the five Region Teachers of the Year – they are an affirmation of why we do what we do.
