We are here to support you, teachers! Our programs and support extend to all PreK-12 teachers in Southern Arizona, including those who teach in district, charter and private schools.
Tucson Values Teachers shines a spotlight on individual teachers who bring that extra something special into the classroom. Please let us know about a teacher that you believe deserves special recognition, one who goes above and beyond in the classroom each and every day. Send us your nomination for a PreK-12 teacher who works in Southern Arizona. Each month, we will select one teacher who will receive the award, $250 cash courtesy of Helios Education Foundation, a $100 gift card for classroom supplies, and a festive presentation arranged by Tucson Values Teachers.
Tucson Values Teachers offers a FREE mentorship program for all PreK-12 Southern Arizona teachers, connecting educators who are interested in finding a mentor with those who would like to give back by serving as an advisor.
