For the past eight years, FM 94/9 and Azusa Pacific University have teamed up to honor San Diego County's hard-working teachers and educators. Here's your opportunity to nominate - or even re-nominate - teachers who have made a positive impact in your community.

Once a month, one teacher will be recognized as our hero. The teacher receives a plaque and prizes at a presentation in front of their class! At the end of the year, all of our selected teachers and their classes will be honored at a private celebration at LEGOLAND® California in Carlsbad!
