The Brookline Education Foundation’s annual event in May, “Celebrating Teachers,” is a special opportunity to celebrate the talent, enthusiasm, and dedication that Brookline’s educators bring to our schools each day. The 2025 event was held this year on May 6th, in the STEM Commons at Brookline High School at 3:30 pm. CLICK HERE for a video of the entire event!
All educators who have been awarded a grant this year were recognized. Recipients of teacher, collaborative, and systemwide grants, Margaret Metzger fellowships, as well as the Adam Russell Gelfand Fellowship, the David E. Pradell Award, and the Charlie Baker Legacy Award, were announced. The highlight of the event was the introduction of the Caverly Award recipients, Amanda Kretchmar of the Pierce School and Lisa Rodriguez of Brookline High School. It was, as always, a wonderful and uplifting celebration of gifted educators.
