Recognizing Excellence in Our Staff
Each year, the De Soto Teachers' Association recognizes an outstanding certified staff member in each building who is professional, considerate, friendly, helpful and gives extra of themselves and their time.
The winner is determined in each building by a vote of the certified staff in that building and will have their name engraved on a plaque in the main office. Additionally, DTA awards two $400 scholarships to graduating seniors from each high school in honor of the Teachers of Excellence that year.
