The NDCTE has established several awards to recognize teachers, artists, and businesses who have greatly contributed to the profession of English Language Arts instruction.
|
All nominations for NDCTE Awards must be sent to the appropriate parties by July 1.
These awards rely heavily on the generosity of colleagues to recognize the excellence and unique circumstances of ND ELA teachers. Please take the time to complete as many nominations as you feel able. These recognitions can only happen when we prove dedicated enough to appreciate the hard work of their peers. Winners will be recognized at the NDCTE Awards Luncheon held each year during our Summer Conference. If you have questions about nomination procedures, please email the board at: ndcte.boardmember@gmail.com |
