Do you know a new (1-3 years) teacher who is deserving of recognition for being a really good teacher? Please use the attached form to nominate that teacher for the Marshia Coleman Award, an award for innovative new teachers in honor of our friend Marshia Coleman who was such a wonderful mentor and friend to new and "old" teachers. We miss Marshia and want to honor her by recognizing a new teacher. The teacher must be a member of ACSS.
