Appreciated Teacher Awards

As a teacher’s credit union, one of the many ways we demonstrate our support and gratitude for educators is through our Appreciated Teacher Awards. This is a recognition program that commends outstanding teachers within our field of membership, which includes all districts and accredited schools in Texas.

Gulf Coast Educators FCU started the Appreciated Teacher Award program in 2012 to help honor the work of dedicated educators who make a difference in our community. The finalists are announced each year during Teacher Appreciation Week, when the public votes on their choice for Appreciated Teacher of the Year. The finalist with the most votes receives a $2,500 grand prize and the remaining 4 finalists each receive a $500 honorarium.

We are not currently accepting nominations for our Appreciated Teacher Awards. Check back in April!
