Outstanding Educator Award

October 13, 2020

Huge congratulations to Dr Tom Findley and Miss Olivia Power who have both been nominated for the University of Chicago's Outstanding Educator Award.

Every year, UChicago gives newly admitted students the opportunity to recognize the teachers who have made a difference in their lives. The prestigious award has existed for over three decades, with new students being asked to nominate teachers from their high schools whose guidance has helped them along the path toward intellectual growth.

According to the university website, an Outstanding Educator shapes young minds in meaningful ways by thoughtfully approaching instruction, sharing an infectious love for learning, and caring for students both inside and outside of the classroom. 

All award winners receive a commemorative award, certificate, and letter that includes details from the student who nominated them.
