About the EDDY Awards
The EDDY Awards is an annual event to celebrate Duval County's leading teachers. It is a time-honored tradition that has grown into its new mission to elevate the role of Jacksonville's best teachers. Each year, we celebrate each school's Teacher of the Year and announce the winner of the VyStar Duval County Teacher of the Year.
Meet the 5 finalists for 2023 VyStar Duval County Teacher of the Year!

The finalists were chosen by a community selection committee that reviewed their applications, conducted interviews and watched footage of their instruction in the classroom or online. One of the five finalists will be announced as winner of the county-wide honor on Friday, February 10, 2023 during the 32nd Annual EDDY Awards.

Congratulations to the 2023 School-level Teachers of the Year!
The Jacksonville Public Education Fund is honored to once again lead the community-driven process to select the VyStar Duval County Teacher of the Year and to celebrate every outstanding Teacher of the Year in public schools across the district. It has never been more important to celebrate the heroes in our classrooms!
We want to share our sincere congratulations to each and every one of the school-level Teachers of the Year. In addition to the celebration and recognition, Teachers of the Year are eligible to apply to join JPEF's Teacher Leadership Initiative, which offers world-class professional learning and leadership coaching to help teachers make an even bigger impact in their schools.
