Posted by Fort Worth ISD on 7/11/2018 3:00:00 PM
More than 100 Fort Worth ISD teachers have applied for consideration in this year’s Fort Worth ISD Academic Chairs for Teaching Excellence In all, 14 winners will be chosen this fall.
The applications will be passed on to committees of judges later this month. Finalists will be notified in August, and the 2018 Academic Chairs for Teaching Excellence will be announced this October.
Two Chairs of Teaching Excellence have already been named. Prior to the close of the 2017-2018 school year, Julia Worthington, a theater arts director at Western Hills High School, and Brandi Waller-Pace, a music teacher at Bruce Shulkey Elementary School, were named the 2018 Broadway at the Bass Chair for Teaching Excellence in Theater and Dance and the Bayard H. Friedman Chair for Teaching Excellence in Performing Arts, respectively.
All Academic Chairs for Teaching Excellence will be recognized at an awards luncheon on Nov. 15.
Modeled after the university-level chair program, the title of Teaching Chair -- established in 1994 -- recognizes outstanding classroom teachers and awards them with a $5,000 honorarium.
