To be considered for the title, Each Volusia school nominates a teacher and fills out an application. A group of parents, business owners, teachers, administrators, and community members file through the applications until picking the five finalists. A sub-committee then ranks the finalists after observing them in their classrooms and interviewing them. Once they have a winner, the group keeps it secret until the celebration.

The current Teacher of the Year is Frank Garaitonandia, an Art Teacher at Citrus Grove Elementary School, serves as Volusia’s representative of quality education, and is now a finalist for Florida’s Teacher of the Year.
