Flok was nominated for this award by EmpowerU because of her leadership and understanding of the critical need to support educator well-being as paramount to improving student engagement, motivation, and outcomes.

Nominations were judged by a panel of education experts, and finalists were selected for their commitment to education during and in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, their creativity, and innovation in helping all students continue learning while ensuring students felt safe, empowered, and engaged.
