Because of You Award Recipient: Doug Toland

Teacher, Decatur High School

Federal Way Public Schools proudly recognizes Doug Toland as a Because of You Award recipient. This student-led award honors staff members who make a lasting difference in students’ lives.

Why Was Doug Nominated?

A scholar shared that Mr. Toland has been a constant source of encouragement to her and to all his students. He always greets them with a smile on his face. Now that this student is a full-time Running Start student, she is not on campus often, but when she has the chance to visit Mr. Toland, he is always happy to see her. 

Because of you, this scholar feels encouraged to continue learning and keep a smile on her face.

Created by students on the Advisory to the Superintendent, the Because of You Award celebrates staff who consistently show up for students and their communities.
