As part of its commitment to local communities throughout Chicagoland, Byline Bank proudly supports the "High Five: Celebrating Excellence in District 65" recognition program for Evanston's elementary and middle school teachers and staff. Nominated by students, family members and fellow staff, one licensed staff member and one educational support staff member were recognized each month in the 2020-2021 school year. These District 65 employees were selected for "continually going above and beyond"– an especially appreciated and difficult endeavor during the last school year. Honorees received a $100 Visa gift card courtesy of Byline Bank, a framed certificate, and recognition at a monthly regular school board meeting. "These exceptional educators and staff faced a uniquely challenging year with grace and commitment," said Tracy McGuire, Byline Bank North Shore Market President. "At Byline, we strive to be actively engaged with our local communities and supporting Evanston District 65's 'High Five' program is an honor."
