Nominations for school district employees and volunteers accepted through March 31
Who is your champion in education? Eugene School District 4J has exceptional people who make a difference for students every day. Nominating a valued educator or volunteer for the ACE Awards is a wonderful way to honor the incredible talent and dedication of our amazing teachers, classified staff, administrators and volunteers.
One nominee in each category will be named the ACE Award champion and receive a $250 grant for a school or program of their choosing from Eugene Education Foundation. One nominee also may be recognized with a special lifetime achievement award. Every nominee will be recognized as an exceptional educator at the awards ceremony.
Submit your nomination(s) for the annual ACE Awards by Sunday, March 31. Nominations are accepted in four categories (teachers and licensed specialists, classified staff, administrators and supervisors, volunteers).

ACE Awards Celebration
All nominees will be celebrated and champions will be announced at a reception and awards ceremony on May 2 at North Eugene High School. The event is free and open to the public.
Note: In previous years a joint awards event was held to celebrate educators from Springfield, Bethel and Eugene School District 4J. The last multi-district event was in 2017, but the district has continued the ACE (A Champion in Education) Awards as a 4J program to honor our district’s exceptional professionals and volunteers.
