This past week Pine City educators and administration attended the annual Leadership in Education Excellence event held at the St. Cloud River’s Edge Convention Center. Currently in its 34th year, the LEEA recognizes educators throughout the state of Minnesota that have been nominated by their district leadership for the honor.
Each district is responsible for setting their own criteria, but nominees should be selected that serve as excellent examples to inspire fellow colleagues, students and their communities through positive leadership and attitude toward the educational field.
The 2025 honorees in Pine City included:
Mandie Mishler
Jared Polzine
Heather Sward
Kristin Unverzagt
On behalf of the Pine City School District, we want to thank each one of our honorees for their dedication and efforts to create a supportive learning environment for our students.
