Do you have or know an amazing teacher that seamlessly incorporates Agriculture into their classrooms? To recognize and celebrate these exceptional teachers, the Iowa Agriculture Literacy Foundation offers its annual Excellence in Teaching About Agriculture Award.
This award is open to non-vocational pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade teachers across Iowa.
Applications are being accepted through November 17, 2024, and the winner will be selected and recognized in December. The selected Iowa teacher will receive $500 to support their classroom initiatives and up to $1,000 to cover expenses to attend the 2025 National Agriculture in the Classroom Conference to be held in Minneapolis, Minn.
