Congratulations to each of our Achieving Higher award recipients for September 2026. This peer-nominated award recognizes individuals for their exemplary effort to do more than what is expected in service of their colleagues and our students.

This is from Lauri Hazelton, a substitute teacher with Ogden School District!
Having served in roles from playground monitor to behavior interventionist across several elementary schools in our district, "Mrs. H" tried to retire, but she couldn't stay away from the incredible community here. Here is why she chooses Ogden:
"No matter what school I go to, I see a familiar face. To see those faces light up and hear 'Mrs. H' warms my heart. I thought I was building their sense of community, but the children are actually building my sense of community. As long as I am physically able, I choose to sub in Ogden schools."
