2025 Teacher Leader Impact Awards: Now Accepting Nominations, Including Teacher Teams!

Edthena is now accepting nominations for its 2025 Teacher Leader Impact Awards. The award recognizes teachers and, for the first time this year, teams of teachers for their commitment to collaborative professional development, lifelong learning, and continuously improving their teaching practices. All award recipients will receive a prize package that includes a cash prize and a school-wide subscription to the AI Coach by Edthena platform for the 2025-26 school year.

“Whether new to the profession or a long-time educator, we believe ongoing professional learning is key to teachers’ ongoing success,” said Adam Geller, CEO of Edthena. “Now in its fifth year, this award is all about celebrating amazing teachers who share this same philosophy and who are always working hard to have an even greater impact in their classrooms and beyond.”

New for 2025, teachers or teams can nominate themselves for the award. As in prior years, nominations can also be submitted by a school-level administrator. The nominations, which are free and take only a few minutes to submit, include a summary of how the nominee is continually improving and the positive impacts of the nominee’s teaching and lifelong learning.

Nominations are due by April 18, 2025. All winners will be announced on May 20, 2025.

All winners will receive a prize package valued at $3,550 to celebrate their achievements. In addition to the school-wide subscription to the AI Coach platform for the 2025-26 school year, winners will also receive a cash prize, exclusive merchandise, and more.

AI Coach is an adaptive, first-of-its-kind solution that uses conversational artificial intelligence to support teachers as they work through coaching cycles. Using the secure platform, teachers independently reflect on their practice and set near-term goals as part of a self-paced module that mirrors the instructional coaching process. Teachers have an interactive conversation with Edie, the AI-driven coach, who asks probing, open-ended questions and offers personalized tips and resources for improvement.
