Matthew Mopsick, a social studies teacher at Freehold Township High School, was selected as a 2023 U.S. Presidential Scholars Distinguished Teacher. 

The distinguished teachers program recognizes faculty members who have made an extraordinary impact on the community through the integration of ambitious scholarship and dynamic student engagement. Each year, U.S. Presidential Scholars have the opportunity to name a teacher who they consider the most influential for this honor. 

Senior Camryn Bartone, one of 161 high school seniors across the United States selected as a U.S. Presidential Scholar, nominated Mr. Mopsick for the distinguished teacher award. 

"I feel honored to have been nominated by such an amazing young woman as Camryn Bartone. I am humbled and grateful by this recognition," Mr. Mopsick said. 

Everyone at the Freehold Regional High School District congratulates Mr. Mopsick on this outstanding recognition and applauds his dedication to the students at Freehold Township High School.
