From our Awards Chair...

As Awards Chair for NHSTE I would like to point out two new awards ISTE has this year that are self nominating. Because of this I would encourage you to possibly nominate yourself for the ISTE Impact Award. As I am sure you are still making a difference in education and doing outstanding work you would be ideal for this award. It is possible that you feel the same way about your district and would consider nominating your district for the ISTE Distinguished District Award. A description for either can be found below. 

• ISTE Impact Award: This award honors individuals or organizations making a difference in education and whose outstanding work improves learning for all students.
• ISTE Distinguished District Award: This award highlights an exceptional school district who demonstrates effectiveness and innovation in the application of educational technology. They ensure equitable, accessible and appropriate technology for all students and exhibit a progressive mindset when it comes to challenges in education (we have presented this award in the past, but have updated the nomination form).

Nomination forms are live on the awards page on iste.org.Nominations close March 31. You can nominate yourself or someone else. Spread the word throughout your organization and help New Hampshire and it’s educators, leaders and districts get the recognition they deserve.
