The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) has announced the 2024 Missouri Regional Teachers of the Year. Stakeholders from each Regional Professional Development Center (RPDC) in Missouri selected the 2024 recipients.
Jennifer Webber, kindergarten teacher at Buchanan Elementary, has been named one of three Regional Teachers of the Year from the Southwest Region. Webber has been with the district since 2014.
“Receiving this honor would not have been possible without enthusiastic students, the incredible mentorship from dedicated teachers and administration, and the unwavering support of my teammates in the Branson School District,” says Webber.
The Regional Teacher of the Year program was established in 2016 in an effort to celebrate outstanding teachers from all areas of the state. All Regional Teachers of the Year will be invited and recognized at the Missouri State Teacher of the Year Awards Banquet held by DESE in October.
Webber shares, “Representing Branson Schools as I move forward to compete for Missouri Teacher of the Year fills me with immense pride and responsibility. I feel a renewed sense of purpose to continue advocating for excellence in education and to inspire others within our community and beyond.”
