Area teachers awarded with Bright Ideas Grants
Earlier this year teachers throughout Colquitt EMC’s service area submitted applications with creative lesson plan ideas. The top ten winners were determined by a panel of judges, who receive a copy of each application without names or identifying information. Colquitt EMC began sponsoring the Bright Ideas Grants to support teachers with funding to put their creative ideas into action. Funding for the grants comes from the cooperative’s unclaimed capital credit fund.
The 2011 winners are:
Sue Van Nortwick, Lowndes County Middle School
Margaret Finney, Lowndes County Middle School
Becky Martin, Lowndes County High School
Danielle Gibbs, Southeast Elementary School, Valdosta
Lisa Fletcher, Brooks County Middle School
Donald Morgan, Brooks County High School
Becky Scott, Annie Belle Clark Primary School, Tifton
Geni Cook, Annie Belle Clark Primary School, Tifton
Vann Thornton, Tift County High School
