Nominate Educators of the Year!
Each year The New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) strives to recognize educators who have gone above and beyond in their service to New Jersey’s students. The Pequannock Township School District participates in the Governor’s Educator of the Year (GEOY) program to honor the hardworking teachers and educational services professionals for their dedication to students and the profession. Now is the time of year where you get to recognize a teacher or educational service provider who has demonstrated excellence inside and outside of the classroom. When nominating an educator, please provide a brief description of the following:
- In what ways does the teacher or educational support professional demonstrate their exceptional skill or dedication to their students?
- How does the teacher or educational support professional inspire students of all backgrounds and abilities to learn?
- How does the teacher or educational support professional demonstrate leadership and innovation in and outside the classroom?
- In what ways does the educator have the respect and admiration of students, parents, administrators and colleagues?
- Does the educator play an active role in the community as well as in the school? If so, how?
You can nominate teachers as well as educational support providers - interventionists, Child Study Team members, therapists, classroom aides...anyone who makes an educational impact on your child in the school setting.
Please download, complete and return the form to Mrs. Stager by below by November15th. If easier, you can send a brief narrative via email in lieu of completing the form.
