Ottawa Carleton District School Board

Each year, the Director’s Citation Award and Employee Recognition Awards provide a valuable opportunity to recognize the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board's staff members. These awards allow staff members to appreciate and celebrate one another for the incredible work they do each day.

The Director’s Citation Award recognizes outstanding and significant staff contributions to the District and its students over an extended period of time, showing a level of imagination, enthusiasm, and professionalism that constitutes a worthy model for others.

specifically in the areas of equity, health and safety, innovation, technology and mentorship. These include: 

• The Health and Safety Award
