Principals: is your school a science giant? If so, then nominate it for one of Devon Energy Corporation’s Science Giants Award today!
These awards will recognize three campuses this year that have demonstrated proven academic gains in science and applied innovative approaches to encourage student interest in the subject.
Three prizes—$25,000 (first), $10,000 (second), and $5,000 (third)—will support the winning school’s strategic and creative vision for schoolwide academic progress in science. HISD schools swept the competition in 2010, and previous years’ winners include Joseph H. Crawford Elementary School (2009) and Juan Seguín Elementary School (2008).
The deadline to submit a nomination form (PDF) is Wednesday, March 31, 2011. This year’s winners will be announced in May, and principals will be notified by the end of the April.
