Have you or someone under your leadership built a “better mousetrap” when it comes to leading your district to success? Could other school leaders learn from something you have done and get similar results in their districts?

You can gain recognition and draw positive attention to your district by nominating your school leaders to the Winner’s Circle, sponsored by the Michigan Association of School Administrators (MASA).

Each year the MASA Membership Services Committee presents Winner’s Circle awards to superintendents or their first-line assistants who have:

• Launched or adapted an effective program or practice
• Which has had a positive impact on their school districts
• That could be used in other districts across the state.

Winners are then recognized in the MASA Leader, in local media, and at MASA’s Midwinter Conference. You can read about former winners online.

MASA accepts rolling nominations throughout the year. Nominations will be accepted at any time, but in order to be recognized at the 2009 conference, the MASA Membership Services Committee needs to hear from you by November 25, 2008

Easy-to-complete nomination forms can be found at MASA's website. Click on “Administrator Awards” in the Awards, Scholarships and Recognition section. Questions can be directed to Linda Wacyk at 517.327.9268 or lwacyk@gomasa.org.
