Hello Everyone,
I just attended my first Celebration of Teaching
for the Norman Public Schools. The Oklahoma Writing Project was well
represented by many exemplary teachers receiving recognition for their hardwork
and dedication to education. There was not a program so I may not know the
"exact" title or criteria for selection of some of the awards but here are some
I remember off hand:
Carmi Scheller (several awards)
Nancy Klopowitz (several awards, including being
recognized as a retiree)
Claudia Swisher (Nancy O'Brien Award -- very
special)
Karin Perry (can't remember the award
name)
Bonner Slayton (finalist for NPS teacher of the
year)
Forgive me if I neglected to mention any others
from the OWP family who received awards. I was proud to see so many of you
receive these awards and to share with others that I knew you
through our OWP relationship. Congratulations!!!
