APEGGA
Teacher
Awards

Teachers who make math or science fun, help to encourage and inspire students to succeed academically. At various points in our lives we encounter remarkable teachers. They “make school cool!” The APEGGA Teacher Awards program recognizes these exceptional teachers for their enthusiasm and dedication.

Students, parents, principals, school staff, and teacher colleagues can submit nominations for the 14 APEGGA Teacher Awards presented throughout the province, annually. At an event held in their honour, each award recipient is presented with a certificate and $1,000 to be used at their discretion for professional development, school equipment, resource materials, web site development, teaching aids, or other tools to improve teaching and student learning.
