Teacher of the Year Nominations
The Cabot School District is participating in the Teacher of the Year program. Nominations can be made by a student, a parent, or another staff member. Nominations can be made for your child's current teacher or a past teacher. Each school will recognize each teacher with one or more nominations. Then, one teacher will be the school's Teacher of the Year. After that, Cabot will select the Cabot Teacher of the Year. Go to the district website to nominate a teacher. A link for Cabot Teacher of the Year will scroll across the top. It is box #4 under the Panther Foundation link . The last day to submit a nomination is Friday, March 13th.
