At a regularly scheduled Board meeting on April 8th, The Yucaipa-Calimesa Joint Unified School District Board of Education recognized the 2025 School Site Teachers of the Year.  The Teacher of the Year program celebrates the significant and positive impact teachers have on students’ lives.  Teachers across all grade levels dedicate themselves to imparting lifelong academic and social skills, promoting student achievement, personal well-being, and civic responsibility.

These amazing individuals will be judged at the district level to determine who will be the districtwide Teacher of the Year, ultimately being entered into a countywide competition hosted by the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools.  The district will announce the districtwide winner in August just before the beginning of next school year.
