Outstanding Patriot Award

Each year, the Broadalbin-Perth Central School District Board of Education recognizes the Outstanding Patriot of the Year. The award is given to one teacher or administrator, one instructional support staff member, one non-instructional support staff member, and one non-employee community member, organization, or business owner who exhibits the following qualities:

• Possesses superior qualities to inspire young people to seek knowledge and understanding, to broaden their skills, and to acquire methods for attaining personal goals.
• Is active in school organizations and events.
• Has championed the mission and vision of the Broadalbin-Perth Central School District through volunteerism, service, or financial support.
• Values positive relationships with other educators, administrators, students, parents, and community members.

Under the direction of the Board of Education, the superintendent of schools will implement the Outstanding Patriot Award program. The final determination of all award winners will be made by the BOE committee responsible for reviewing all nominations.
