  1. VFW TEACHER AWARD National Citizenship Education

  2. DEAD LINES • Deadline for teacher nominations is Nov. 1. • Post judging should be completed from Nov. 2-15. • District judging must be completed by Dec. 15. • Departments must be completed by Jan. 10. • It is extremely important that the winning entries at the Post level be submitted to the District and then the District winners forwarded to the Department in a timely manner.

  3. REQUIRED DOCUMENTS • Post chairmen must be sure to send the original nomination form, essay and official Post teacher entry form of the winner from each grade’s category level — along with a one-page resume, up to five pages of documentation and a good quality head and shoulders photograph from the winning teachers — to their District chairman. This must be done at least five days prior to the announced date of the District judging deadline. • Previous state and national VFW winners are not eligible.

  4. JUDGING • Select competent and unbiased judges. • A panel of at least three to five judges is always recommended. • The VFW chairman should be present at the judging to provide assistance but should not be one of the judges. • One important job of the chairman at this stage is to review all nomination forms to ensure they adhere to the rules. • Make sure entry is not a self nomination. The nominator should keep to the 350 word limit and sign the nomination. • Judges should grant points based on three criteria: • Innovative approach to teaching citizenship (1-50 pts.); • Development of resources to teach citizenship education (1-25 pts.); • Compassion to teaching citizenship education (1-25 pts.).
