UCF Alumna Named a PEOPLE Teacher of the Year

An alumna of UCF’s College of Education was selected by PEOPLE magazine as one of five Teachers of the Year.

Jennifer Bohn, who graduated from UCF in 1995 with a social sciences education degree, teaches leadership development to at-risk students at Maynard Evans High School in Orlando. She also coordinates the school’s International Baccalaureate program.

Bohn was Orange County Public Schools’ Teacher of the Year in 2001, an Orange County finalist in 2004 and the district Teacher of the Year in 2008. That led her to the state competition in 2008, where she was one of five Florida finalists.
