Michigan City Chamber accepting nominations for the Annual Education Award

The Michigan City Chamber of Commerce has a history of celebrating local educators and educational programs. A long-time advocate for building our local student base into strong talented individuals, the Michigan City Chamber has revised its annual award which honors educators in the Michigan City area. Presented by Comcast Business this annual community award recognizes educators or educational programs that have made a significant impact in our community over the last year. “Technology has kept your teachers teaching and students learning as we’ve shifted to a mix of in-class, hybrid, and remote instruction nationwide”, stated Greg Gomolka from Comcast’s Government and External Affairs. “Comcast Business provides the fast, reliable internet connectivity and simplified network management needed to support advanced solutions — and stay ready for what comes next.”

This year’s award winner will be selected by nominations for teachers, program directors, counselors, administrators, or other individuals impacting education in our community. The award is also open to nominations from programming or partnerships that have enhanced or had a significant impact on students.

“We are pleased to partner with Comcast Business on this significant community award”, said chamber president, Katie Eaton. “This is an opportunity to showcase the best of our educators and educational programs in the Michigan City area.”

An official nomination form provided by the chamber should be used for submissions. Nominations may be submitted by colleagues, students, community members, or anyone with knowledge of a deserving individual or program. Nominations will be accepted through November 26, 2021. A presentation of the award to the selected winner will be scheduled at a time of choosing between the winner, Comcast Business, and the Chamber. Nominations will be kept confidential until a winner is selected by the selection committee.
