SEAFORTH – Nominations are now open for the Always Learning Awards, offered by the Avon Maitland District School Board.
There will be a maximum of 10 awards presented to individuals or groups who have gone above and beyond to engage, inspire and innovate.
The Always Learning Awards replace the Key Contribution Awards, which recognized staff, students and community members for their significant contribution to education under one of the five Board Goals. The new awards reflect the mission statement and re-visioning of goals and priorities in a four-year strategic plan unveiled in September 2012.
The new mission statement is Engage, Inspire, Innovate …Always Learning and the strategic plan states: “We will create positive, inclusive learning environments and maximize student outcomes. We will work toward that by valuing our students, our staff, our families and our communities using principles of character, equity and sustainability. The plan will be the primary consideration when someone is nominated for an “Always Learning Award”.
Nominations are being accepted on-line in the form below. The deadline for nominations is Friday, Feb. 15, 2013. The Always Learning Awards will be presented on April 3, 2013 along with the Board’s Years of Service Recognition at the Seaforth Legion. Please complete the online nomination form, referring to the Board’s Strategic Plan for 2012-2016.
