Dean's Awards for Excellence in Teaching

About the Award

Since 1984, the School of Education at SUNY New Paltz has collaborated with area school districts to recognize teachers in the Mid-Hudson Valley for excelling in their fields and endeavors. Each year, the teachers who receive this award are recommended by area school administrators and selected by a committee of education faculty and professionals. As recipients of this award, each teacher will receive an honorary appointment as an adjunct clinical professor with the School of Education. The winners will be honored at a special reception at New Paltz and again at the Mid-Hudson School Study Council's Awards for Excellence Dinner in October.
