Overview of 菠菜网lol正规平台’s Teacher of the Year (TOY) Program
The Los Angeles County Office of Education (LACOE) has proudly served as the sponsoring organization of the Los Angeles County Teachers of the Year Program—an honors competition that spotlights excellence in public education. The county program, the largest in the state, is part of the California and National Teacher of the Year programs. Each year, LACOE recognizes all district-level Teachers of the Year, including the one 菠菜网lol正规平台 Teacher of the Year (TOY) winner.
