Awards

NCAAHPERD-SM recognizes outstanding teaching and professional involvement by selecting and honoring teachers and/or professionals of the year in several categories. In some instances, those receiving such recognition advance to compete for similar honors in the SHAPE Southern District . If chosen for the Southern District award, the honoree competes for the national award, which is presented at the national SHAPE Convention.

Members are encouraged to honor and recognize their colleagues by nominating those qualified for a NCAAHPERD-SM award. Nominations can be made by filling out the appropriate form and submitting it with the required information. Please note that each award has specific criteria and nomination procedures.

Most nominees must be a NCAAHPERD-SM member in order to be considered for an Alliance or Association award.  However, certain awards such as Principal and Superintendent of the Year Awards do not require membership. Finally, for one to be eligible for competition beyond the state level, award recipients must also be members of the national SHAPE.

If you are interested in nominating a person for an Alliance or Association award, or if you want to apply for a grant or scholarship, please use the links below to either submit the nomination form or view the award criteria and application details.
