Teacher Recognition Day

For those attending this year on July 17th, a copy of the memo with a few specifics about the day is available.

Directions to campus and a CNU campus map are available from the CNU website.

Parking on campus is open during the summer. You should find ample pakring in the lot between the library and the Ferguson center.

Teacher Recognition Day is precisely that — an opportunity for students in the Governor's School to recognize teachers who have had a positive and formative impact upon them. Initiated in 1989 by the Governor's School for Humanities at the University of Richmond, Teacher Recognition Day provides students a chance to say "Thanks" to a teacher, and provides nominated teachers with much-needed encouragement and praise for a job well done. Every student has the opportunity to nominate a teacher from his or her past to be recognized on Teacher Recognition Day. Of the 400 students attending the program, over 75% nominate a teacher. The total number of teachers who attend a portion of the day consistently exceeds 150. The culminating activity is a ceremony in the teachers' honor. During that ceremony, each teacher is presented with a citation noting his or her selection by a Governor's School student. Those unable to attend receive a letter and the citation from the President noting the honor bestowed upon them.
