The Tia Maria Foundation is honored to partner with Teachers' Insurance Plan to recognize outstanding educators who make a lasting impact on their students and communities.

​

We believe in supporting teachers and celebrating their dedication to shaping future generations.

​

In our inaugural year, we proudly presented our first-ever Educator of the Year Award to Mrs. Kelly Mc Cracken-Villanueva, a truly inspiring educator and mentor.

 

This year, we are excited to announce a nomination process for our award.
