So far, 2007-08 has been quite a school year for recognitions - 2007 Broward County Elementary Environmental Educator of the Year, then being selected by my colleagues to represent them as Eagle Point’s Teacher of the Year, Eagle Point’s Blue Ribbon Award and getting to travel to Washington to receive it, being selected as one of 8 finalists for Broward County Teacher of the Year and the latest award was announced on Monday. Based on a proposal submitted in Sept. 2007, Eagle Point has just been awarded a $10,000 Best Buy TEACH Award. This award is a Best Buy gift card for use on technology equipment for Eagle Point and the science program. Having won one of the 50 national $10,000 awards makes the Broward School district eligible to win an additional $100,000 from Best Buy (awarded in May 2008). The proposed plan is to enhance the science program at Eagle Point with additional student produced video and other technology - I can’t wait to get started!  Any suggestions on other projects we can do with this award?
