The Kansas Horizon Award program offers school districts an excellent opportunity to honor outstanding first-year teachers.
The program, sponsored by the Kansas State Department of Education, recognizes and rewards teachers who have served as examples of excellent teaching in elementary and secondary classrooms during their first year of teaching.
The Presidential Scholars program recognizes and honors high school seniors who have demonstrated high achievements academically or in the arts — some having to overcome special challenges or hurdles to do so.
