Nominations for Carla J. Nigro Award due March 31

Nominations will be accepted through March 31 for the 2016-17 Carla J. Nigro Spirit Award. Carla was a school psychologist at Loess Hills AEA 13 who had an enthusiasm for life. She lost her life to cancer in September 2010 but will always be remembered for her great spirit in the way she demonstrated a positive outlook, a friendly nature, a selfless attitude and a passion for helping others. 

     This annual award acknowledges a Green Hills AEA special education representative (school psychologist, school social worker or special education consultant) who exemplifies Carla's spirit in his/her daily work with students, parents, teachers and coworkers. The recipient of this award will receive a gift certificate, a plaque to honor his/her commitment to others, and will be acknowledged by peers at a GHAEA Professional Learning Team meeting.
