'Everyday Hero' Award Nominations Due Friday

The Grafton Public Schools Special Education Parent Advisory Council is seeking nominations for its "Everyday Hero" awards.

This award, according to the SPED PAC, "is for any individual who has made a significant contribution in enhancing the life of a student with special needs. Examples include someone who goes above and beyond to support inclusion, ease daily transitions, keep the student safe, adapt the school curriculum, support their unique learning style or enhance the social aspect of a student with special needs."

Previous awards have gone to bus drivers, teachers, cafeteria workers, paraprofessionals, specials teachers (media, art, P.E., music), those in support positions, students, and community employees.

Everyone nominated will receive recognition.

Nomination forms are available here, and must be returned via email, fax or in-person. Along with the nomination, a $20 nomination fee is requested.

Award recipients will be honored May 9 at a ceremony in the Grafton High School auditorium.
