Forty-two Irvine Educators Honored at 22nd Annual Excellence in Teaching Awards Banquet
DOE Directors, Coordinators, and Student Affairs Officers joined Irvine community members and educators from the Irvine Unified School District (IUSD) in honoring the 2008 outstanding teachers of the year. Hosted by the Exchange Club of Irvine, the Irvine Teachers Association, and IUSD, the May 9th recognition dinner at the Irvine Marriott honored 39 teachers for their excellence in teaching or in their educational program. Additionally, three teachers were honored as "Teacher of the Year" - Beth Higgins from Canyon View Elementary School, Lynn Kaminsky from South Lake Middle School, and Joan Malkin from Woodbridge High School. During the evening DOE attendees were pleased to greet many Irvine teachers and administrators who had started their educational careers following their graduation from UC Irvine's Single Subject, Multiple Subject, Master of Arts in Teaching, or Intern programs. UC Irvine's Department of Education and Office of the Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost provided Platinum Apple Sponsorship for the 2008 Awards.
