Hero is spelled T.O.Y.

A hero is defined as someone who is admired for courage, outstanding achievement or noble qualities. In celebration of its heroes, Dallas ISD gathered more than 230 stellar teachers at the Frontiers of Flight Museum to laude them for their achievement, dedication and leadership in the classroom.

It was a celebration of the Campus Teachers of the Year and each of them remained incredibly grounded while administrators and Dallas ISD trustees hailed them for their daily acts of courage, molding and guiding students into responsible citizens prepared to make their own way.

Every year, each campus selects its teacher who embodies the work of a classroom champion with an unwavering commitment to students.  Go here to see the full list of honorees. 

Each of them then are eligible to be considered for the districtwide title, which will be selected in January.
