Reminder from Nick Walkosak, SEPTA’s Immediate Past President and Awards Coordinator:
The nomination period for SEPTA’s Eileen K. Crawford Outstanding Educator and Parent Volunteer of the Year (“Howie”) awards closes this Sunday night, October 4th, 2015. Please take a few minutes and think about those who have helped your family over the years or if you are just aware of extraordinary efforts and accomplishments that need recognition. If you have an educator or parent volunteer in mind, please complete and submit an online application at one of the links above. We plan to present the awards on November 12th at the Superintendent Chat.
Also, in previous years the SEPTA Board reviewed the nominations and selected the winners. We’d like to open that up to SEPTA members this year. If you’ve been looking for ways to get involved in SEPTA, but don’t have time for a long-term commitment, please consider this opportunity to join the committee. We’ll need some of your time time for just a few weeks in October, with no requirement even to leave your home. All you’d need to do would be to review the applications and record your assessments on a spreadsheet at your convenience over the course of about two weeks….the catch is that committee members cannot submit nominations this round, since you’ll be the ones to review and select the winners. So who’s in?!
And finally, this is the first time we are using an online form so there may be some challenges. If anyone can’t access the forms, can’t complete or submit, or has questions about the process, please contact Nick Walkosak. Thank you so much!
