Started in 2021, the Sarasota County Gator Club Teachers of Distinction program was designed to allow our annual scholarship winners the ability to recognize an educator who has made a significant impact on them throughout their educational journey. This year, we add these nine incredible local educators to our list making it 20 total educators in three years. Congratulations to each of our deserving recipients!

We appreciate all the dedication, sacrifice, and leadership each of you have exhibited throughout your careers not only with our scholarship recipients, but with all your students. Because of your impact, your students feel confident and prepared to for the future, including accessing a world-class education at the University of Florida!
