Local 10 has a long tradition of recognizing outstanding teachers, and this year, our Good News South Florida series is looking to honor one.
We know there are many in our school system, but we seek an exemplary educator who meets the following criteria:
- 10 or more years teaching at the elementary, middle or high school level in Broward, Miami-Dade, or Monroe counties
- Highly innovative, applying creative teaching techniques to engage students
- Personal story of overcoming challenges or adversity and inspiring others to do the same
- Highly involved in community service or charity work
If you know of a teacher who meets all of the above and is long overdue for some “extra credit,” tell us about him or her.
Upload a photo of your favorite teacher below and complete all the fields to submit your nomination. You can also email your nomination and photo to goodnews@local10.com. Please keep your description to 250 words or less.
A panel will review all submissions and choose one teacher. The deadline to nominate is this Friday, May 1, at 11:59 p.m.
The chosen honoree will be revealed on Local 10 News on Friday, May 22, beginning at 10:30 a.m. as part of the Good News South Florida series.
