Support Employee of the Year Award

The Support Employee of the Year Award recognizes unique and exceptional contributions by support personnel. There are two winners for this award, one school-based and one non-school-based.

The winners, finalists, and nominees for this award are all honored in the spring at a special Support Employee of the Year reception, generously supported by the Fairfax Education Foundation, followed by a special School Board Ceremony.
