Who makes a difference that students can feel? Who inspires, encourages, challenges, and believes in our learners every day?
Richardson ISD is proud to celebrate the incredible educators who invest so much of themselves in the success of our students. Teachers, leaders, staff, parents, and students can all nominate an outstanding educator as an RISD Super Teacher for the 2026–27 school year!
Do you know an educator who exemplifies the RISD Learner Framework and brings the Graduate Profile to life each day? Consider nominating a teacher who:
- Builds meaningful relationships and helps students develop self-efficacy
- Creates relevant, engaging learning experiences
- Uses data-informed instruction to meet the unique needs of every learner
- Empowers students to become resilient, innovative, and collaborative learners
- Helps students grow as global citizens
- Inspires students to pursue their North Star Goals
A Super Teacher doesn’t just teach a lesson—they see potential, build confidence, create opportunities, and make a lasting difference.
Help us shine a spotlight on the educators who go above and beyond for our students. Your nomination is an opportunity to say thank you, celebrate their impact, and remind an incredible educator that the work they do matters.
Who is your Super Teacher? Nominate them and help us celebrate the educators who make Richardson ISD extraordinary!
The window for Quarter 1 nominations is open from Aug. 25 to Oct. 7. Announcements will be made in early January.
