SCHOOL ADMINISTRATOR AWARD
Awards are presented annually to outstanding school Principals and/or Superintendents who demonstrate support for and commitment to high-quality arts edu- cation programs in their schools. The influence of such administrators is a major factor in improving music ed- ucation in school systems across the state.
One Elementary School Principal, one Secondary School Principal, and one School District Superinten- dent may be selected to receive this award. Individuals holding titles as Assistant Principal and Assistant or As- sociate Superintendent also qualify.
Administrators receiving awards will be notified by NJMEA and a presentation honoring them will take place at the NJMEA February State Conference.
DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD
The NJMEA Board of Directors has initiated a Distin- guished Service Award for those members who have honored themselves with faithful service to music edu- cation in public, private, and parochial schools in New Jersey.
Past and present members of the NJMEA Board of Di- rectors are also eligible for this award since they have dedicated much time and effort toward state projects re- lated to music education.
Additional award categories include individuals and or- ganizations outside the field of professional music ed- ucation and NAfME officers on both the National and Regional levels.
Award recipients will be honored at a mutually agree- able occasion such as state workshops, region meetings, concerts or festivals, and retirement affairs.
