Carla J. Nigro Spirit Award

  Nominations are now being sought for the 2017-18 Carla J. Nigro Spirit Award. Carla was a School Psychologist at Loess Hills AEA 13 who had an enthusiasm for life. Carla 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 is given to 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 by striving to make a difference in the lives of others. 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. 

 Nominations for this year’s award should be submitted here by March 30, 2018. Re-submissions of past nominees are also welcome. See past recipients here.
