The New Jersey School Boards Association is accepting entries for the annual School Leader Awards. The School Leader Awards showcase creative programs from New Jersey schools.

Entries must be received in the NJSBA office by 4:30 p.m. on June 27.

Entries are judged on the level of innovation, how well the program addresses specific needs of the students, the relationship of the program to the state’s curriculum standards, and the program’s results and impact. Programs must be in place for two full years to qualify.

The deadline for submissions is June 27. Winning entries will be recognized in October during a ceremony at NJSBA’s Workshop 2016.

For an entry form, go to http://staging.njsba.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/sla-form.pdf.
