This year, 135 semi-finalists are being recognized as part of the 2011 Excellence in Teaching Awards.

The Excellence in Teaching Awards program is our way to say thank you for a job very well done,” said Dave Hancock, Minister of Education. “I applaud all nominees for using their creativity and innovation to motivate students to succeed.” Award nominees must show leadership, demonstrate creativity and innovation, work collaboratively with colleagues, and create positive learning environments that motivate students to excel. &nbspNominations include statements of support from the nominee’s principal or superintendent, a teacher colleague and a member of the public. Semi-finalists and award recipients are selected by a committee made up of representatives from the education community. The program recognizes semi-finalists across the province at regional celebrations. In addition, semi-finalists can access up to $1,500 for professional development. From the 135 semi-finalists, 23 award recipients will be selected and honoured in Edmonton on May 28 at a dinner and awards ceremony.
