W2G Recognized by ETFO

This past month has been pretty exciting for our Write to Give Program.

The program has been honored by the Grand Erie District School Board as well as by ETFO.  I just found out today that I have received the 2009 - 2010 award for Innovative Projects on Behalf of Children Living in Poverty Award.

Both awards have been a huge honor.  The best part is that the word will now spread a little bit further, with acknowledgment of the program at the Annual Meeting in August as well as in the Voice Magazine this fall I am sure I can double my numbers with the Write to Give Program.

I have posted some pictures below.

Special thank you to my staff and the Social Justice Committee for their continued commitment and support with our programs.

This is the award that I got in the mail today (June 24th).  This is exciting because its an award that is for Ontario…so it means acknowledgment at the Annual Meeting in August as well as in the Voice Magazine that goes out to all teachers in Ontario!  Great for the Write to Give Program!
