The “Leon Rollerson Diamond Awards” will honor many educators, teachers and people who have supported the educational system from the grass roots. The honors will be given in many different areas which will include teachers, students, retired teachers and supporters. Rollerson says that, "there were so many people who wanted to be a part of this grand event so the ones who were chosen represent the many who also wanted to be a part of this celebration. It was not easy choosing the ones who will be honored on the 'Leon Rollerson Diamond Awards Honor Arts Program', but the board did a great job in their selection." 

Statements 
When the call is there for everyone to be the community that it takes to help the child in education, very few show up. The ones who are being honored today are the ones who are above the call of duty
 
These artist and educators don’t just represent themselves, they represent all of the other great educators who came with them, before them and who will come after them.
They don’t stand alone.
They represent other giants in the field of education.
