How to Nominate

This year our nomination process is a little different but hopefully easier! We created a google form to fill out the original paper nomination form. Make sure you have all of the information you'll need for nominating, because there isn't a way to save your work and come back to it later! I suggest keeping the google form open until you're completely ready to submit! 

HERE'S SOME INFORMATION YOU'LL NEED TO GET FROM YOUR NOMINEE: 

  • Legal name 
  • Address (city, state, zip) and cell number
  • Email
  • Membership division (elementary, middle, secondary, higher ed, etc.) 
  • NAEA/TAEA ID # *** All of our awards are for members only, except the Friend of TAEA.
  • Current Employer 
  • Position 
  • If retired, date of retirement
  • Work Address and phone number 
  • List of degrees held, institutions, and other education *

  • List of NAEA activities, leadership roles, and positions held at the regional level*
  • List of state and local art education positions*

  • List of teaching and/or related experiences* 

*The nominee can list this information out for you or you can get the information from their resume/vita 

 

HOW TO NOMINATE A FELLOW EDUCATOR

  1. Tell your colleague you'd like to nominate them! Nominating someone does not have to be a surprise. In fact, you'll need their help to gather some of the information for the online nomination form as well as their resume/vita and a high-quality photo of them. Be sure to ask if they are a member of TAEA! Most of our awards are available only to TAEA members! 
  2. Write a letter of nomination stating why you feel this educator deserves to be recognized by TAEA. 
  3. Ask your nominee to send you an updated resume, a high-quality photo, a short bio, and some basic contact information for the online form. 
  4. Go online to https://goo.gl/forms/rbgZ0xKabI4i9CWl1
  5. Fill out the google form for the nomination. 
  6. At the end of the google form, you will be prompted to follow a link, where you can upload your nomination letter, your nominee's resume/vita, and the high quality photo. 
  7. Put your feet up and feel the glow that comes with nominating a deserving teacher for an award!
