About Teacher of the Month

  • The Fox C-6 School District is excited to partner with the Missouri Department of Education to offer (grant-funded) TEACHER APPRECIATION classroom mini-grants of $200. 

    All certified teachers, counselors, librarians, SLPs, diagnosticians, social workers, therapists, behavior specialists, interventionists, and instructional coaches are eligible to be nominated for a Teacher of the Month mini-grant. 

    Nominations for this honor will be open throughout the 2022-2023 school year. Each month, up to five eligible staff members will be selected at random to win a $200 mini-grant to use for their classroom. 

    We are asking staff, students, and parents throughout the Fox School District and community to nominate eligible educators who show great character and dedication and have had a positive impact on students, staff, families, or the greater Fox C-6 community.
