The Waterford School Educator's prize 2007-2008

Three Waterford Educator Prizes are awarded annually to acknowledge outstanding teaching and exemplary service by Waterford faculty. Each carries a $5,000 stipend to further the educator’s formal education, research, writing, travel, or related scholarly activities. The stipends are awarded by the Administration based on the written recommendations of faculty peers and other colleagues. The recipients are selected based on their experience at Waterford, passion for learning, and influence on students and colleagues.
