Best Practices, Volume VI, 2005

The Star Awards

Table of contents

The STAR AWARD was initiated in 1996 to recognize an outstanding Partnership in the Anchorage School District. At that time we had 190 Partnerships. Today we have in excess of 400 Partnerships, and have increased the STAR AWARDS accordingly. The award is presented at the annual End of the Year Celebration. To be nominated for the STAR AWARD, a Partnership must meet the following criteria.

  • Enthusiastic support of School Business Partnerships and the school or schools to which the nominee is partnered.
  • Commitment to educational enhancement.
  • Excellence of what is offered.
  • Dedication to the continuation and the success of the program.
  • Participation on a regular, dependable,
    scheduled basis.
  • Willingness to be flexible and find ways to provide the necessary support to assure success.
