SUMMARY:2014 Flame For Learning Award Banquet
DESCRIPTION:"What greater work is there than training the mind and forming the habits of the young?"\n\n\n\nThese profound words were uttered by the Christian Saint John Chrysostom in 400 A.D. And they are just as relevant today as they were 1600 years ago.\n\n \n\nBecause of the importance of teachers in developing and educating children\, the Chambers of Commerce in Johnston County adopted the Flame For Learning Award.  In so doing\, it has been the goal of the local chambers to support and elevate the teaching profession in the public schools. This award recognizes outstanding creativity and innovation in the classroom and nominees are selected strictly on merit\, without regard to school or residence. The recipient of the award is named the Johnston County Teacher of the Year and will represent the Johnston County Public School System in the North Carolina Teacher of the Year competition.\n\n \n\nOver 350 outstanding educators in the county were nominated for this prestigious award. Twenty of those teachers have been named semifinalists.  They are:\n\n \n\nAmanda Johnson\, Archer Lodge Middle\n\nKaren McCann\, South Campus High\n\nJoseph Smith\, Smithfield-Selma High\n\nAmy Hines\, River Dell Elementary\n\nShannon Pawlak\, Riverwood Elementary\n\nSue Avera\, Princeton Middle/High\n\nJeanne Beasley\, Powhatan Elementary\n\nChristy Klein\, Princeton Middle/High\n\nDoug Pawlak\, Riverwood Middle\n\nTyler McKenzie\, Polenta Elementary\n\nMegan Lee\, Four Oaks Elementary\n\nMarcia Kephart\, Polenta Elementary\n\nTamara Adams\, West Smithfield Elementary\n\nRobin Hiatt\, Powhatan Elementary\n\nTracie Zukowski\, Smithfield Middle\n\nStephanie Caviness\, Wilson's Mills Elementary\n\nMichelle Disney\, Glendale-Kenly Elementary\n\nJennifer Thorne\, Clayton Middle\n\nLaura Hines\, Corinth-Holders Elementary\n\nEmily Westbrook\, West Johnston High\n\n\n\nThe Greater Smithfield-Selma Area Chamber of Commerce is proud of the fact that seven of the semifinalists teach at schools that are members of our Chamber. Just as important is the knowledge that all 20 semifinalists and the 332 other teachers who were nominated for the award\, have had a profound positive impact on the children of one or more of our Chamber members or their employees.\n\n \n\nThis program requires sponsorship dollars\, much of which is given to the 20 semifinalists in the form of prize money and recognition plaques.  There is also a celebratory banquet on April 29 at 6 pm at the Johnston County Agricultural center. Mrs. Tyronna Hooker\, 2011 North Carolina Teacher of the Year\, will be the featured speaker. Attached is a sponsor form\, which we ask that you review and return to us.  All sponsors will receive tickets to the banquet and will be recognized for their support of teaching in Johnston County. If you have questions\, please let me know. Thank you for your interest in teachers as the true professionals that they exhibit each day in the classroom.\n\n \n\nWe look forward to receiving your sponsorship!\n\n\n\n2014 Flame for Learning Sponsorships
