GREENWOOD, Ind. – The Center Grove Community School Corporation (CGCSC) awarded Dan Andersen the 2023-24 CGCSC Teacher of the Year during the district’s annual Employee Celebration on Wednesday, May 15.
The district also honored Teacher of the Year winners for each of its buildings, Support Staff of the Year winners, and Legacy Award honorees.
Andersen, in his 30th year at CGCSC, is the choral music director at Center Grove Middle School Central. As Teacher of the Year, he receives $1,000, courtesy of Wallman Financial, LLC to spend in the classroom. He will represent Center Grove in the Indiana Teacher of the Year competition.
Bill Long, Ed.D. Interim Superintendent, said, “Dan Andersen works to see the whole child, not just the choir student in front of him.”
“It is an honor to be named the Teacher of the Year for the Center Grove School Corporation,” said Andersen. “To be chosen from the hundreds of incredible teachers in Center Grove is humbling.”
Center Grove High School seniors nominate the teacher they believe had the greatest impact on them during their time in Center Grove schools.
