Deadline Approaches for
Special Education Awards Entries

The deadline for the Innovations in Special Education awards program is quickly approaching, as entries must be postmarked by Friday, April 2.

The awards program, which recognizes exemplary programs for special education students, is sponsored by NJSBA and ASAH, the Association of Schools and Agencies for the Handicapped, which represents private special education schools.

Entries will be judged on content, including degree of innovation, how well it addresses student needs, its integration into the curriculum, evaluation strategies, and parent/community involvement. Presentation of the entry will also be considered.

Selected programs will be honored at a special event held in conjunction with Special Education Week in New Jersey in May 2010.

More information can be found on the 2010 Innovations in Special Education online entry form. 

Descriptions and photos of last year's winners can be found on the 2009 Innovations in Special Education Web page.
