The School-Related Employee of the Year Program honors outstanding education support personnel for
their exemplary, dedicated service and contribution to excellence in our public schools and local
communities. School-related employees enhance the educational experience for the children whose lives
they touch. They are essential to the successful operation of schools and school district offices.
Recognizing individuals who make a difference in the lives of students is a priority for the Florida
Department of Education. Thus, each district is strongly encouraged to participate in this important
recognition program.
