Nominations for the Extraordinary Woman Award

The 2025 Women’s History Month theme celebrates the collective strength and influence of women who have dedicated their lives to education, mentorship, and leadership. Through their efforts, they have served as an inspiration for all generations — both past and present.

From classrooms to boardrooms, and from grassroots movements to global initiatives, women educators and leaders have played a pivotal role in nurturing minds and inspiring transformative action. This theme spotlights the contributions women have made to the American educational system, the free marketplace of ideas, and the very fabric of our democracy.

If you know of a woman in La Plata County who exemplifies this theme, please nominate her for the 2025 Extraordinary Woman Award. We look forward to meeting these incredible women!

Let’s honor these Extraordinary Women!
