Nominate an American Star of
Teaching
The U.S. Department of Education announces the start of the 2007
American Stars of Teaching nomination process. Nominations are
being accepted at
http://www.ed.gov/teachers/how/tools/initiative/index.html.
The program honors exemplary classroom teachers who are using
innovative teaching strategies to improve student achievement
and positively shape their school environment.
Every day, America’s teachers extend themselves beyond their
classroom doors to meet the needs of all children in their
school community. This program provides an opportunity to honor
a teacher who has made an impact on students, as well as their
school community.
The nomination process will conclude on April 1, at which time a
committee of teachers at the U.S. Department of Education will
review the nominations and select the 2007 American Stars of
Teaching. One teacher from each state and the District of
Columbia will be selected. Officials from the U.S. Department of
Education will announce the American Stars by visiting the
recipients in the fall of 2007.
