Teacher-to-Teacher Initiative is Now Accepting Nominations for the 2007 American Stars of Teaching

The Teacher-to-Teacher Initiative of the U.S. Department of Education is pleased to announce the start of the 2007 American Stars of Teaching nomination process. The American Stars of Teaching program is designed to honor exemplary classroom teachers who are using innovative teaching strategies to improve student achievement and positively shape their school environment.

Every day American teachers extend themselves beyond their classroom doors to meet the needs of all children in their school community. Do not miss this opportunity to honor a teacher that has made an impact on their students, as well as their school community, by investing in the lives of those they teach and sharing success with whom they work.

Nominations for the 2007 American Stars of Teaching are currently being accepted at http://www.ed.gov/teachers/how/tools/initiative/index.html. The nomination process will conclude on April 1st at which time a committee of teachers at the Department will review the details of each candidate and select the recipients of the 2007 American Stars of Teaching honor.

One teacher from each state and the District of Columbia will be selected as representatives of the many teachers who are making a difference in the lives of students. Officials from the U.S. Department of Education will announce the American Stars by visiting the recipients in the fall of 2007.
