Weston Education Enrichment Fund Committee: Nominate Your STAR Teachers

There are many “stars” on staff within the Weston Public Schools, but now you will have an opportunity to recognize those special people who have had a positive impact on your children. WEEFC is pleased to announce its new Staff and Teacher Achievement Recognition (STAR) award program. These awards provide a means for families to show their appreciation to teachers and staff who have made a difference in the life of their student, whether at the holidays, end of the school year – or any time recognition seems warranted.

A family may honor multiple individuals with a single donation, and all employees of the Weston schools, past and present, are eligible to receive STAR awards. All award recipients will receive a certificate acknowledging their service and dedication, and each certificate will note the student and family recognizing the recipient. Monies raised through this program will support WEEFC-sponsored professional development grants. At the end of the school year, recipients of STAR awards will be entered into a drawing for valuable gift certificates.

The first recipient of the STAR award, Weston High School math teacher and track coach John Monz, said, “WEEFC does a lot of great things for our schools. It’s nice to be recognized, and if I can help them raise some money in the process, so much the better.”

Honor a teacher today, and purchase a STAR award online, or download a donation form from the Weston Public Schools website. All donations to this program are tax-deductible.
