We are currently planning the 2024 Apex Awards!
Do you know a significant Methacton educator, staff, alumnus, or community member who deserves recognition for their accomplishments?
The Methacton Education Foundation Education Foundation seeks to recognize our most outstanding teachers, alumni, and community members. The Apex Award will be a permanent mark of distinction for those who made extraordinary impacts on the school district community, and we need your help to select our 2024 class of inductees.
The Foundation is currently accepting nominations from the public for the 2024 inductees. You can find complete information here. We will recognize the top educators, alumni, and key community members. Think about the people in your life whose lifetime of contributions or accomplishments make them APEX AWARD material, and take a few moments to tell us about them!

EDUCATORS

The committee will review all nominees and select finalists for each group. The semi-finalists for educators will be selected and will interview and have the following question prepared:
Tell us about your educational background, including what drew you to the field and what maintains your interest in education.
In our school district, we talk about the importance of communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity. Share how you apply those concepts in your teaching on a day-to-day basis OR through a specific lesson.
When you look around the school and watch your fellow teachers/educators, I’m sure you’ve mentally noted what makes a teacher outstanding. What are some of those traits?
Every day you have children come to your class with many different learning styles and abilities. How do you make sure all students learn?
What is the most important issue that you, as an educator, see on a local, state, or national level?
