Honoring the People in Education Influencing Tomorrow

Every student can name someone who made a difference. 

A teacher who inspired confidence. A counselor who offered support. A bus driver who brightened their day. A cafeteria team member who made them feel welcome. An administrator who went above and beyond. 

Across our schools and communities, exceptional individuals help students learn, grow, and prepare for the future. Their influence extends far beyond the classroom and leaves a lasting impact on the lives of others. 

The Firstmark Influencer of Tomorrow (F.I.T.) Award celebrates these future builders—members of the education community whose dedication, leadership, compassion, and service help shape tomorrow’s leaders.

Each month, Firstmark Credit Union recognizes one outstanding individual making a meaningful difference in schools and communities across San Antonio and surrounding counties.
