Dear Cary Academy Parents & Faculty:
Excellence in teaching – we know it when we see it. It can be the teacher who spends extra time with the students who need it most or the teacher who is creative enough to inspire a real love of learning in a student. Perhaps it’s a teacher who cares enough to be involved with his or her students beyond the classroom. Whatever their methods, certain teachers make a real impact on students and their learning abilities.
We would like to recognize one such teacher and we need your help. The Cary Chamber of Commerce has been a leader in supporting education in our community through numerous programs and activities. Building on the success of the Discovery Award, sponsored by the Ashworth family for over two decades, and the Clara Knoll Award, initiated in 2000 by Barry and DJ Mitsch, the Cary Chamber secured sponsors to develop a teaching awards program for all schools in Western Wake County.
The Michael G. Curran Family Foundation is proud to step forward as a participant in our Honor a Teacher Program. We are proud to announce that the Michael G. Curran Family Foundation Leadership in Teaching Award will be awarded this year to an outstanding teacher at Cary Academy.
We are asking parents and faculty at Cary Academy to nominate teachers for this award. Included with your nomination, please describe why you feel this particular teacher deserves this award. Specific Criteria: a teacher that consistently demonstrates a passion to teach and provides leadership both inside and outside the classroom.
These nominations will then be narrowed down to five finalists that will be interviewed by the sponsoring company. We will honor all of the nominees and announce the winner at a celebration at the Koka Booth Amphitheatre at Regency Park on May 11th. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 919-467-1016.
