Do you know a teacher who is changing students’ lives through outstanding work in the classroom? The Ron Clark Academy, in partnership with Great American Financial Resources, Inc., is searching for phenomenal teachers from across the country to participate in the second annual Great American Teacher Awards. Ron Clark and Kim Bearden, who are national award-winning educators themselves, are currently accepting applications for this prestigious award to recognize those who are doing exceptional work to inspire their students.
The five national finalists will receive the following: An all-expense paid trip to Atlanta for the finalist and a guest to attend the Ron Clark Academy’s National Educators’ Conference in November of 2010; special recognition at the National conference; classroom resources and supplies; media opportunities; and a $1,000 honorarium.
After the five finalists have been selected, one teacher will be named the Great American Teacher of the Year. In addition to the prizes listed above, this exceptional teacher will receive a $10,000 cash award and a $5,000 cash gift to his/her school.
