YHS Teacher Honored by DiscoverE

John Hammons, a teacher at York High School, has been named a runner-up in the 2013 DiscoverE Educator Recognition Awards Program. The DiscoverE Educator Awards were established by the American Society of Mechanical Engineering (AMSE) to shine a spotlight on educators who are inspiring tomorrow’s innovation generation by helping students discover engineering.

The program is open to all full-time educators teaching in grades 6-12. A panel of judges selected three winners and eight runner-ups from the hundreds of nominees. In recognition of this distinction, Hammons will receive a $500 award, a 3M Shoot & Share digital camera, and a 3M gift pack of classroom supplies.
