Join us for an unforgettable evening celebrating the teachers, students, and supporters shaping the future of education in Kansas City.
For 10 years, The Educator Academy has helped grow, prepare, and support educators making an impact in classrooms across our community. What began as a bold vision has become a growing network of teachers, mentors, school partners, and supporters working together to ensure every student has access to a quality teacher.
Now, we invite you to celebrate this milestone with us.
Champions of the Classroom is our inaugural annual gala honoring the educators who change lives every day and the community that makes their work possible.
Together, we’ll celebrate a decade of impact, hear inspiring stories from educators and alumni, and invest in the future of Kansas City classrooms.
