Why: Each year PCLDA celebrates its Annual Teacher Appreciation Awards. The awards are given each spring to one teacher at each HPISD campus and one counselor in the district.
The awards are given to educators to recognize their unique and outstanding contributions to teaching children with learning differences. The winners each receive a check for $500 and $750 to the district winner, but all persons nominated are recognized at the award ceremony and receive a gift from PCLDA.
The Park Cities Learning Difference Association wishes to honor outstanding teachers who work with our children. One teacher from each HPISD campus and one staff member from the district will be chosen. In addition, parents can recognize amazing teachers from private schools their children attend. All teachers nominated will receive recognition for their unique contributions to teaching children with learning differences. All teachers & staff in the district are eligible.
