MeckEd Honors Teachers of Excellence
Teachers work tirelessly each day. Tonight, May 16, a group of 40 Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools teachers will be recognized for their hard work, dedication and leadership at the MeckEd Teachers of Excellence celebration at the Mint Museum.
It's the first year that MeckEd has recognized a group of educators. CMS principals nominated the teachers for their instructional leadership and positive contributions to their schools and professional communities. MeckEd then collaborated with CMS officials to narrow the pool of nominees based on student academic growth and a desire to highlight the work of teachers across diverse school settings, subjects, grade levels and experiences.
The Daily Post thinks this is another great example of community awareness and recognition of educators in Mecklenburg County.
