Please join us in celebrating our very own Linda Corliss, who has been honored as the 2025 Vermont-NEA ESP of the Year! As an instructional assistant at Castleton Elementary School, Linda has earned this prestigious recognition for her steadfast dedication to supporting students and her outstanding advocacy for her fellow union members. Congratulations, Linda!
As Vermont-NEA President Don Tinney put it in his award notification letter, “Your constant and passionate advocacy for better wages and working conditions within your district is remarkable. All while volunteering in multiple capacities in your school and community and providing compassionate support to the learners you encounter each day. Your unwavering advocacy for ESPs and passion for organizing and professional development are making a significant impact in elevating and highlighting the amazing work of ESPs in Vermont.”
