The National Aviation Hall of Fame (NAHF) is seeking entries for the 29th annual A. Scott Crossfield Aerospace Educator of the Year Award, which includes a $5,000 cash stipend.
Founded by famed research test pilot Scott Crossfield in 1986, the award is a juried competition open to classroom teachers in grades K through 12.
Nominations will be examined by a review committee of aerospace industry and education professionals for documentation of a teacher’s effectiveness, creativity and ability to maintain high standards for their students and themselves, with aerospace being the core subject matter or their curricula.
The recipient will receive their award at the NAHF 53rd Annual Enshrinement Dinner & Ceremony on Oct. 2. The winning teacher and a guest receive an all-expense paid trip to Dayton, Ohio, to receive the award as part of the black-tie ceremony.
Deadline for nominations is June 30.
