Learn About This Year’s Michigan Teacher of the Year
Meemic congratulates Corey Rosser, the 2025-26 Michigan Teacher of the Year. Corey is a social studies teacher at Quest High School in Lapeer County’s North Branch Area Schools. He has worked at Quest High School since its inception in 2004.
“We are so happy for Mr. Rosser and our students at Quest High School for this honor and recognition,” said Principal Doug Lindsay. “The success of Corey’s students is a testament to the relationships he has with them. His approach of truly getting to know them on an individual basis, understanding their goals and the challenges they have faced, is crucial to the program. From the outset of onboarding students joining the Quest program to graduation day, Mr. Rosser focuses on developing a relationship with his students and providing them the necessary support to achieve their goals.”
Corey will serve as an advocate for, and representative of, the more than 80,000 public school teachers statewide and engage in discussions on how best to continue to improve Michigan's education system as a non-voting member of the State Board of Education and a member of the Governor’s Educator Advisory Council. He is also the state’s candidate for the prestigious 2026 National Teacher of the Year honor. He is also part of the 2025-26 Michigan Teacher Leadership Advisory Council, comprising this year’s Regional Teacher of the Year cohort.
