Dane Wear, our 6th grade science teacher, received a prestigious award today!
Challenger Center for Space Science Education (Challenger Center) announced the recipients of its 2013 Teacher of the Year award. Five elementary and middle school teachers were named recipients of the award which recognizes educators who exemplify the spirit of Challenger Center’s educational mission and share a commitment to science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) learning.
Nominations were made by Directors from Challenger Learning Centers located across the U.S, Canada, U.K. and South Korea. Directors nominated these educators because of the strong relationship the educator has developed with the local Center and the impact the educator makes on his/her students.
Mr. Wear was one of these five individuals.
Congrats, Mr. Wear! What an amazing honor!
