The Cortopassi Family Foundation is pleased to announce its annual Excellence in Teaching Awards. The awards, which traditionally honor four outstanding public or charter high school educators in Science and Math, have expanded this year to include recognition of a teacher in an alternative or non-comprehensive high school setting.

All nominees must be full-time classroom teachers in public or charter high schools in San Joaquin County, and have at least two years teaching experience in Math, Science, or alternative education. The nominations must be submitted by their current principals.
