PATTERSON, Calif. - Californer -- Patterson High School, Dave Dein, has been awarded the 2025 Association of Career and Technical Education (ACTE) Teacher of the Year, for his outstanding work in teaching and promoting the truck driving profession to Patterson students. Dein will be one of five teachers competing for the National title which will be awarded at the ACTE Vision Conference in December.
Dein started one of the nation's first high school truck driving programs seven years ago, emphasizing not just teaching the skill sets in operating a commercial motor vehicle but instilling in his students the right mindset to be our nation's next professional drivers. "Dave Dein has worked tirelessly to train the next generation of America's commercial drivers," said Mark Allen, President and CEO of the International Foodservice Distributors Association. "His passion for America's youth will help ensure a supply of well-trained, qualified drivers can enter the profession that moves 70 percent of the nation's freight." This is a well-deserved recognition for Dave and his vision for America's commercial drivers."
