Would you (or your child) be where you are today without the help of a teacher? Show that teacher your appreciation by submitting a nomination to the Teachers Who Made a Difference program. Teachers nominated by Dec. 31 will be honored at an event hosted by the University of Kentucky College of Education. There is no specific selection process for the program. The number of honorees to be recognized is limited, so organizers ask that nominators limit recognitions to one educator per year. Honorees do not need to be graduates of UK or residents of Kentucky.
