HORACE MANN TEACHER OF THE YEAR NOMINATIONS DUE DECEMBER 15

The Horace Mann Friend of Education Awards recognizes individuals, companies and groups that support 
public education. Who do you need to recognize and thank for their contributions? You can show your 
appreciation by making a nomination in one of nine categories; journalism (print, radio and television), 
legislation, organization (corporate or civic), individual contribution to education, teacher and education support 
professional. 
 
Nominations for the “teacher” award are due Dec. 15. Nominations for all other categories must be received by 
March 7. Award guidelines and nomination forms are in the Timeline for Action, beginning on page 48. They 
can also be found on the MNEA website at www.mnea.org/Missouri/HoraceMannAwards.aspx

Please send in your Teacher of the Year nominations!  Also, please be prepared with suggestions regarding nominations for the other categories.  We'll decide on those at our January 6 meeting.
