We’re excited to be starting an award for teachers in the area. We’re calling it the Yellowstone Partners’ Academic Distinction Award (YPAD for short). In a nutshell, the award is meant to recognize teachers that go above and beyond their expected duties. We want to find teachers who have made lasting impressions on their students.
This year’s award is already well underway with nomination ballots having been distributed to several schools in the Idaho Falls District 91 area. We’re looking forward to reading and hearing the stories from students about the wonderful teachers we have in the area.
This is still very new, and as it grows so too will the areas of eligibility. More information can be found on the award’s website.
Update:
We have announced and awarded the winners. Here is a little video of the ceremony that we put onto Youtube.
Congratulations teachers!
