The Morris Museum of Art and Wachovia Corporation have named Angelika Selman-Bondar, visual arts teacher at Stevens Creek Elementary and Euchee Creek Elementary, the 2008 Outstanding Art Teacher in Visual Art. The award was presented at a special ceremony held at the Morris Museum of Art in April and included a cash prize which may be used for professional learning, travel, conference expenses, art supplies, or resources for the classroom. The competition was open to kindergarten through high school teachers in the CSRA . Nominees submitted questionnaires, lesson plans, letters of recommendation, and supporting portfolios. Judging was based on creativity, innovation in teaching methods; development of a philosophy of art teaching reflected in and outside the classroom; involvement in: community arts activities, organizations, workshops or conferences; and involving students in art activities such as exhibitions, field trips, and conferences in and beyond the classroom.
