At HSL, we believe community isn’t just what we build — it’s who we are. That’s why each year, we partner with KVOA to honor the educators who go above and beyond for their students and schools. These are the people who show up early, stay late, and make learning feel like possibility.
This year’s Teacher Appreciation Awards celebrated those incredible individuals in the best way we know how — by giving back. Through heartfelt nominations, classroom surprises, and $1,000 awards, we were able to recognize teachers who make a lasting difference every single day.
The highlight video below captures the joy, the gratitude, and the smiles that remind us why this tradition means so much. Once again, the community showed up for the teachers who show up for their community — and that’s what It’s About Community is all about.
Watch the highlight reel and help us celebrate the educators who make Arizona a better place to learn and grow.
