WIX Filters, a filtration product manufacturer, is partnering with O’Reilly Auto Parts to sponsor the Tomorrow’s Technician 2023 School of the Year competition, a national contest that rewards technician training schools. Nominations will be open through November 29, and 20 finalists will be selected.
The School of the Year competition is open to all high schools or post-secondary schools that participate with Tomorrow’s Technician’s newsletters, website, or LMS (learning management system). Judges will review the entry criteria and select the top school from each of four regions of the U.S. in January 2024, and the winner will be announced in February 2024.

The winning school will receive a visit from Tomorrow’s Tech staff and program sponsors, a $10,000 WIX Filters donation to the school’s program, WIX Filters gear, and an appearance by the WIX mobile marketing unit, depending on the availability of the mobile marketing unit and safety measures from the school, government, or sponsors.
The Top 20 schools will also receive national recognition through Tomorrow’s Technician’s digital platforms. Each of the three schools selected as runners-up will receive a $500 gift card from WIX.
Nominations can be submitted through Tomorrow's Tech's website.
