Nominations for 2006 American Stars of Teaching sought
Once again, the U.S. Department of
Education (USDOE) will honor outstanding classroom teachers
through the American Stars of Teaching program. The USDOE’s
Teacher-to-Teacher Initiative is seeking nominations and
information about teachers who are improving student
achievement, using innovative strategies in the classroom, and
making a difference in the lives of their students.
Teachers
across all grade levels and disciplines will be honored this
fall as 2006 American Stars of Teaching. Parents, students,
colleagues, school administrators and others can nominate an
exemplary teacher who they believe has the qualities to be an
American Star of Teaching. One teacher will be recognized from
each state.

become an American Star of Teaching, visit the
Teacher-to-Teacher Initiative Web site All nominations must
be completed by April 15.
The USDOE received more than 2,000
nominations for the 2005 school year. South Dakota’s honoree for
2005 was Lloyd Trautmann.
