Nominations open for 12th annual Crystal Apple Awards
The U m a tilla -
Morrow Education Ser
vice District announces
that nominations for the
2011 Crystal Apple “Excel
lence in Education” Awards
are now being accepted
through Friday, April 1.
This year’s event will take
place Wednesday, May 11,
at the Pendleton Red Lion.
This is the 12th
year for the Crystal Apple
program, which is spon
sored by the UMESD, with
support from Mid Colum
bia Bus Company and the
Pendleton Red Lion. Last
year’s awards also were
sponsored by Bank of East
ern Oregon, the Wildhorse
Foundation, KUMA radio,
and the Pendleton Rotary
Club. The purpose of the
awards is to recognize in
dividuals who help to make
our schools the best they
can be. Approximately 36
education staff are honored
each year.
“ T e a c h e rs and
education staff work so
hard throughout the year
to make sure our kids get
the best educations in the
most fun and productive
environment possible, and
it’s easy for us all to take
their work for granted,”
said Casey White, Crystal
Apple Awards director.
“These outstanding people
inspire our youth and make
a difference in our commu
nities, and they deserve this
prestigious honor.”
The awards are
open to all classified and
licensed staff in Umatilla
and Morrow county school
districts. It is not open to
administrators, though ad
ministrators are encouraged
to nominate exemplary
employees. The award can
be given to individuals who
work full-time or part-time
in any capacity other than
administration. The staff
member must have worked
in his or her current posi
tion for at least one year
to qualify. Anyone in the
general public may submit
a nomination.
In addition to the
Crystal Apple Awards,
nominations also are be
ing accepted for the Doug
Flatt Memorial Leadership
Award, which recognizes an
outstanding administrator.
Doug Flatt, the late chief
executive officer of Mid
Columbia Bus, was well-
known to school districts
throughout Oregon, partic
ularly those in the Eastern
Oregon region. Doug lost
his life in a tragic plane
crash while on business six
years ago. In guiding the
growth and operation of
MidCo, Doug exemplified
the finest qualities of lead
ership, attention to detail,
service to his community,
interpersonal relationships,
and customer service. The
purpose of this award is to
recognize a school admin
istrator or superintendent
who exemplifies the same
qualities for which Doug
was legendary.
Nomination forms,
qualifications and a list of
past winners are available
on the Crystal Apple web
site, www.umesd.kl2.or.us/
crystalapple. The deadline
to make nominations is Fri
day, April 1, at 5 p.m.
