Celebrate Your Teacher Today
Our March 30th newsletter announced the national American Pioneer of Teaching Award to recognize top performing teachers working in pioneering public schools, including our online public schools in Washington. So far we've received just one nomination. We are all really busy, yet this response clearly doesn't reflect the hundreds of heartwarming testimonies I've heard all across our great state.
Can you make time this weekend to share something special about your child's online teacher by clicking on http://www.publicschooloptions.org/americanpioneer/?? This award is a great opportunity to highlight a teacher you know and show you appreciate their commitment to your child's success. No special writing skills are needed. All that is needed is just an open, fresh, appreciation for something you value about your child's online teacher.
Students, parents, fellow teachers, friends and family members can nominate a teacher using the online form at: http://www.publicschooloptions.org/americanpioneer/. Please go to the website to nominate a teacher today! The award application must be submitted before Wednesday, April 14 at 2:00 p.m.
Click here to see last year's finalists! Click on http://www.publicschooloptions.org/americanpioneer/. to tell us about your awesome teacher.
+ Those of us in Washington Families for Online Learning would also like to hear your story about your awesome teacher, if, after you've sent it to NCPSO, you'd email us a copy to us at info@waonlinefamilies.org . We could post your story on our website to let your teacher know you went out of your way to recognize something special about them. Wouldn't that be a fun, affordable, special gift for your online teacher?!
