Nominations Invited for DisneyHand Teacher Awards
Deadline: October 15, 2004

DisneyHand (<a href="http://disney.go.com/disneyhand/">http://disney.go.com/disneyhand/</a>), the worldwide philanthropic initiative of the Walt Disney Company, seeks to honor some of the most creative, inspiring teachers across the United States with the annual DisneyHand teacher awards. The focus of the awards program is to recognize the teaching profession, showcase creativity in the classroom, and honor those who can assist in developing creative teaching strategies in their school districts.

Only full-time teachers are eligible for the awards program. Teachers can be nominated by students, former students, students’ parents, principals, or members of the community. Nominees who then complete the awards application are eligible for selection as a DisneyHand teacher awards honoree. The national selection committee chooses three applicants in each of ten categories to be DisneyHand teacher awards honorees.

Honorees and their respective schools will receive grants from the Walt Disney Company. Honorees will also participate in professional development and recognition events.

See the DisneyHand Web site for complete program details, nomination guidelines, and online nomination form.
