Student of the Year & Teacher of the Year Nomination forms for SOTY and for TOTY are on the webpage: http://www.augusta.edu/pamplin/english-foreign- languages/flair/honor-society-for-high-school.php For a list of past FLAIR awardees: http://www.augusta.edu/pamplin/english-foreign-languages/flair/honorees.php DEADLINE: February 15 Outstanding Foreign Language Student Award Each school may select one student as the Outstanding Foreign Language Student of the year from their school to be recognized at this year’s FLAIR Honor Society Induction. The student will receive a certificate and prize. Only schools that participate in the FLAIR Honor Society Induction may submit the name of their outstanding student for recognition. The list of winners will be published in the next issue of the FLAIR newsletter, and the name of the FLAIR Student of the Year will be sent to the local newspaper for publication. To participate, the teacher should send the nomination form for the student to [email protected]. The forms are on the FLAIR web page. Middle School Certificates of Merit For the ninth year, middle school students can be recognized by FLAIR for their outstanding work in foreign language. The introductory course is offered over two years at the middle school, so those students maintaining an A average of the three semesters and who are recommended by their teacher, can receive a certificate of merit from FLAIR. There is no cost and teachers will award the certificates at their schools. We hope this will encourage students to continue their study of foreign languages in high school and college.
