The Nominated Schools:
These are the schools that were nominated as well as a little bit of information about each that was provided by the nominating party. Please look over this information carefully and then move to the bottom of the post to place your vote. You can vote once per day per email address provided. Voting will close on Friday March 12th at midnight Eastern time and the winner will be announced on Saturday March 13th.

• Summit County Integrated Preschool- Newberry: Summit County Integrated preschool services children with and without disabilities in our area.  They work with a variety of students, with a variety of needs ranging, but treat them all equally.  When you walk through the doors of this school you are unable to tell the children serviced for their special needs, and the typical peers.  The curriculum is paced to meet everyone’s needs, and allows for all students to participate.  The teachers and therapists embrace literacy as a way to captivate all learners, no matter what their abilities may be.  I feel this curriculum would assist the teachers in creating motivating, high interest lessons, and assist all the students in becoming lovers of books!
• East Elementary: This school is struggling this year. All funds have been frozen and teachers have not gotten any supplies this year.The teachers are turning to outside sources such as Donors Choose and blog giveaways to get basic supplies and to enrich their classrooms.
• Fleming Island Elementary: This school has helped my daughter learn and grow.  I was really nervous about sending my “baby” (3 year old) to elementary school. My daughter and I have loved the experience and would like to give something back to the school that will help all the students and teachers!

Voting is now closed. Stay tuned…the winner will be announced on Saturday March 13th 2010.
