Today opens the call for nominations for the RAPSA Courage, Vision and Heart awards. The awards will be conferred at the November 16th awards luncheon at the Alternative Accountability Policy Forum. These awards are intended to recognize the extraordinary promise of our students and the amazing work being done to support them across the country - A celebration not a competition.
Between August 4th and September 30th we will be accepting nominations for awards that focus on the courage, vision and heart of reengaged students and the adults who serve them. We are encouraging nominations of at promise students and committed educators, policy makers and other program administrators who are making a difference across the country. There will be five Courage Awards conferred with a $1,000 scholarship for each of the five students!
