Then nominate that parent for the State Education Resource Center’s 2020 Parental Involvement Recognition Award

Honored virtually on National Parental Involvement Day: Thursday, November 19, 2020

The State Education Resource Center (SERC) cordially invites you to nominate a parent from your local school and/or community organization for a Parental Involvement Recognition Award. These awards highlight and honor exemplars of parental involvement in schools and community organizations. This year has been unprecedented, and it’s a particularly important time to recognize those who have championed our children and youth of all ages through this pandemic.

Award recipients will be selected based on their merits in each of the following:

  • Active involvement in their child’s/children’s school and/or community;
  • Support of their local school and contributions to high-quality education for all children;
  • Evidence of their ability to make a difference in their local school and/or community; and
  • Dedication and advocacy to ensure equity for all parents and their children.

Nominators and awardees will be notified no later than November 13, 2020 via email and invited to attend a recognition award celebration held virtually on Thursday, November 19, 2020. Please submit the completed nomination packages to SERC by Wednesday, November 11, 2020 by email. Download the PDF nomination form for more information.
