It all began when I learned that as a Business and Information Technology instructor, I would have my own computer lab for a classroom. I jumped at the opportunity! During my first year, I was recognized as an innovative teacher by Best Buy's Teach Award for our school's daily in-house broadcast of the morning announcements. Not only did I receive a certificate of recognition, but I received $1,500 towards updating the school's broadcasting equipment! I cannot tell you how excited I was, since this was my first successful grant!
