About The Event
The Outstanding Teacher Awards are a joint program of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce Foundation, Inc. and the Carroll County Public School, organized by the Chamber’s Business and Education Committee and supported by the Chamber’s member businesses and Carroll County Public Schools. In 2025, the Chamber Foundation will celebrate the 36th Anniversary of the program. This is the Chamber Foundation’s largest event drawing over 700 guests annually. The 2025 Outstanding Teacher Awards is scheduled to take place on March 19, 2025.
The Chamber Foundation’s Outstanding Teacher Awards program recognizes the men and women of the Carroll County Public School System who represent excellence in the teaching profession. The Chamber Foundation honors hundreds of teachers each year at the awards program. Eight teachers are selected for a special award – the Chamber Foundation’s Outstanding Teachers Award. These teachers become nominees for Carroll County Teacher of the Year. Also three Scholarships are awarded to teachers completing a Master’s Program in teacher education or to attend training programs they can bring back to the classroom.
Any full-time teacher in the Carroll County Public School System is eligible for nomination. Students, parents, teachers and school administrators may nominate a Carroll County Public School teacher.
The Carroll County Chamber of Commerce is an independent not for profit corporation. It is not associated with any government, or government agencies, or any other not for profit organizations.
