Educator of the Year
The KY ASCD Educator of the Year Award
was created and designed to recognize outstanding teachers (P-16)
and education professionals (administrators, state department personnel,
supervisors, etc.) who have enhanced Kentucky education.
Nominations for this award
are made by KY ASCD members and can be made at any time throughout
the year. Please note, nominees do not have to
be KY ASCD members. The deadline for nominations is October 15. A
committee will screen the nominations and make a final selection
based on the following criteria:
- Distinguished achievement in developing innovative educational
curricula, programs and/or teaching methods.
- Professional commitment as demonstrated by consistently upgrading
his/her skills and keeping abreast of educational trends and issues.
- Commitment to ensuring excellence within his/her educational
community.
Once the selection has
been made, the recipient of the award will be notified as to the
date and time of the presentation. The award will be presented
at the annual KY ASCD fall leadership institute and the recipient
will be invited to attend at no cost. In addition, the KY ASCD
Educator of the Year will receive a one
(1) year free membership to both ASCD and KY ASCD and will receive
an engraved plaque for his/her accomplishments. The KY ASCD member
who nominated the recipient will present the award.
Is there someone in your
school or district who has made outstanding contributions to education? A
“pat on the back” or a thank you note is always appreciated; but
wouldn't you like to have other people in the state recognize and
honor this person? Now is the time to make nominations for
this award.
