QUEENSBURY, NY, April 16, 2019 — Every week during the school year, TCT Federal Credit Union honors local educators and school employees for their outstanding efforts during the year. For the week of April 15, 2019, the Teacher of the Week Award was presented to Mr. John Burns, Science Teacher at the Warrensburg High School. 

Mr. Burns does so much for the entire school. In addition to being a great Science Teacher, Mr. Burns is in charge of the recycling program. He collects bottles and cans from every classroom, counts them up and turns them in and those dollars are used to pay for field trips. Mr. Burns also collects all of the discarded paper for each room and they are measured, tallied and dumped into recycling bins outside school. Thanks to Mr. John Burns for all of his extra efforts at Warrensburg High School.

The Teacher of the Week is nominated by a fellow school community member who wants to acknowledge their dedication to students and enthusiasm for learning. All school employees, including teachers, aids, assistants, administration staff, janitors, nurses, bus drivers, and more are eligible to receive the award. To nominate a special school employee, email why you feel he or she should be the teacher of the week in 100 words or less to teacher@adirondackbroadcasting.com.  View past Teachers of the Week at www.tctfcu.org/totw.

Nominations are kept on file throughout the school year and one recipient is selected each Monday morning and announced on-air with the Adirondack Broadcasting group of radio stations. The award includes gift certificates to local businesses; Davidson Brothers, Core Revolutionary Group Fitness Facility, Adirondack Winery, a commemorative plaque from Adirondack School Portraits, flowers from A Lasting Impression and TCT gift bag. Teacher of the Week is sponsored in part by TCT Federal Credit Union and Adirondack Broadcasting.
