West Coast Trial Lawyers, in partnership with UNLV Athletics and the Clark County School District Engagement Unit, are proud to announce the Teacher of the Game Recognition Program.
Nominations are being accepted for outstanding CCSD teachers. Selected teachers will receive a $500 gift card and free tickets to a UNLV Men's Football or Basketball game where they will be recognized on the field/court!
Colleagues, administrators, and parents are eligible to nominate teachers:
Qualifications:
Nominee must be licensed a CCSD Pre-K through 12 grade teacher in good standing and demonstrate the following characteristics:
Consistently advances students to higher levels of achievement
Demonstrates innovation in teaching methods and classroom instruction
Sets students up for success in and out of the classroom
Do you know of any CCSD employees who make a difference and are exemplary models of the District’s core values? Recognize one of our many outstanding employees for their commitment to education by submitting a RAVE (Recognize a Valued Employee) Review.
A RAVE Review is an unsolicited acknowledgement of a CCSD employee who has demonstrated excellence of character, performance and service. Submissions should highlight accomplishments that exceed general job expectations and focus on those who go above and beyond for students, parents, fellow staff members, and the community.
Every student at GMS has a school issued Chromebook. PLEASE make sure your child brings their Chromebook to school EVERY DAY and that they are charging their Chromebook NIGHTLY.
