The 2026 Phillip B. Lindy Award for Excellence in K-16 Partnerships – May 1
Posted by PHENND on March 24, 2026
The application window for the 2026 Lindy Awards is now open! The Phillip B. Lindy Award aims to recognize collaborative partnerships between at least one K-12 school and one college/university. This award will be given to the entire partnership, not an individual. Phil Lindy valued collaboration and communication among diverse stakeholders in order to maximize impact.
Through establishing the K-16 Partnerships Network at PHENND, he hoped to bring that philosophy to the world of university-school partnerships. The Lindy Award seeks to honor partnerships that focus on meeting articulated school and community needs and that have goals for long-term commitment. This year, the Awards will also recognize a newly formed partnership (less than one year old) that shows great promise. At the 2026 K-16 Partnerships Network June Institute, all the Lindy Award winners will be recognized and share a total of $5,000 to enhance the mission and vision of the partnerships (e.g., partner meetings, collaborative technologies, trainings, celebrations, outreach).
Deadline: May 1, 2026 at 5:00 PM
