What Is Music Educator Award — Teacher Nomination?
Students can nominate a music teacher for the Recording Academy and GRAMMY Museum's Music Educator Award. Anyone may nominate; the award and honorarium go to the teacher, not the student. Initial nomination needs the teacher's name, school, city and email, after which the teacher completes the application. Eligible teachers are current full-time US school music educators from kindergarten through college; private-studio, after-school and retiring teachers are excluded. Nomination is free and due March 15, 2027. Teachers may also apply without a nomination, with applications due March 31. Multiple nominations do not increase a teacher's chance of selection.
