Think you know a teacher who deserves to be in the Kentucky Teacher Hall of Fame? You can still submit nominations for the Class of 2024.
Established in 2000 through a generous gift from former Governor Louie B. Nunn, the Kentucky Teacher Hall of Fame recognizes educators across the Commonwealth who have made significant contributions to the teaching profession and the students they serve.
Nominations must be submitted by August 15. For additional information and to access the nomination form, visit the Kentucky Teacher Hall of Fame website.
According to the Hall of Fame website, selection is made from individuals (living or deceased) who have spent a significant portion of their professional career in Kentucky and have made noteworthy contributions to the lives of children and youth in P-12 school settings.
Western Kentucky University was selected as the home of the Kentucky Teacher Hall of Fame because of its 100-year history in teacher education and commitment to excellence in this field, according to the website.
The induction ceremony for the 2024 class will take place towards the end of the year. Further details regarding the ceremony will be released on the Kentucky Teacher Hall of Fame website and WKU College of Education and Behavioral Sciences social media platforms at a later date.
