The Education Awards is hosted annually in April where we will award Teachers of the Year who have been nominated by our public school principals. We'll also be awarding several outstanding students with scholarships through the Palm Beach North Education Foundation to go toward their college education through the Palm Beach North Education Foundation Student Leadership Award Program.

 

The Palm Beach North Education Foundation aims to encourage, recognize, and reward selected area High School seniors who have demonstrated leadership potential through a combination of academic excellence, community service, and extra-curricular activities. The Foundation recognizes students at the Annual Education Awards breakfast. Awards are derived from the income of an Endowment Program established under the Palm Beach North Education Foundation, a private non-profit foundation, from Cary Stamp & Co and other member donations.

Award Descriptions

Through the John C. Giba Student Leadership Awards and Palm Beach North Education Foundation Scholarships, our selected high school seniors within the Palm Beach North Region, are encouraged, recognized and rewarded for their holistic leadership qualities through outstanding scholastic excellence, community service and extra-curricular activities. 

 

Every year, we proudly recognize the outstanding contributions of educators within our community through the prestigious "Teacher of the Year" award.
