At ESS, students are at the heart of our mission, and our incredible substitute teachers, paraprofessionals, and support staff play a vital role in helping ensure every day counts in our partner districts. As we celebrate American Education Week 2025, we’re shining the spotlight on our dedicated employees who embody resilience, compassion, and excellence in classrooms across the country.
Every day, our team members step in to ensure learning continues seamlessly. They build connections, inspire confidence, and create meaningful moments for students who depend on them. From early morning calls to adapting on the spot in new classrooms, their commitment keeps schools running smoothly and students thriving.
We sincerely appreciate all the hard work that everyone at ESS puts into ensuring successful school years for our partner districts. Your impact reaches far beyond the classroom walls, and you help create strong, supportive learning communities where students can flourish.
To show our appreciation during American Education Week 2025, we’re awarding $100 e-gift cards to 20 outstanding employees who embody the ESS spirit of excellence and dedication. If you’ve worked any day this school year, you’re automatically entered! Daily, long-term, building-based, virtual substitutes, and permanent placements are all eligible.
Winners will be announced throughout the week on our national social media platforms and here on our blog—so stay tuned to see some of the amazing educators and support staff being recognized!
