KATY, TX [July 17, 2024] – In another show of Katy ISD’s unparalleled excellence, the district’s two Districtwide Teachers of the Year, Jaymee Herrington and Sara Burke, have each been named finalists for the Region 4 Education Service Center’s Teacher of the Year program.
Herrington, an elementary teacher at Katy ISD’s Cimarron Elementary, is among the region’s six finalists for Elementary Teacher of the Year. Burke, a Taylor High School teacher, is one of seven teachers being considered for the Service Center’s Secondary Teacher of the Year honor.
Herrington and Burke will join the region’s other finalists at a recognition ceremony on August 1 where Region 4 will announce the winners. Those winners will advance to the Texas Teachers of the Year program. Finalists for the state honor will be named this fall.
“This is a credit to the quality of educators we have here in Katy ISD,” said Dr. Ken Gregorski, Superintendent for Katy ISD. “Congratulations to both Jaymee and Sara for their continued dedication and service. Every day they are modeling the excellence in education for which Katy ISD is known.”
