Dear Families,
 
I wanted to remind you to nominate your favorite teacher for this year's American Pioneer of Teaching Award sponsored by the National Coalition for Public School Options (NCPSO). Tomorrow is the deadline for nominations, so submit the name of your favorite teacher today!

As many of you know, Jane Ferris, a teacher at Pennsylvania Leadership Charter School, University Division, was the first recipient of this award.  This award is a excellent  opportunity to highlight teachers you know and show them you appreciate their commitment to education and our kids’ success.  Please share the entry information with family and friends, as well as anyone you think might be interested!
 
The award serves to recognize top performing elementary and secondary teachers who work in pioneering public schools, such as virtual, charter and magnet schools.
 
Students, parents, fellow teachers, friends and family members can nominate a teacher using an online form located on the NCPSO website at: http://www.publicschooloptions.org/americanpioneer/
 
I want to encourage you to go to the website and nominate your favorite teacher today. Keep in mind, the award application must be submitted before the deadline on Wednesday, April 14th.

Sincerely,

Cindy Strausburger
President
