ING Unsung Heroes Teaching Awards

Lynne Barrera is Mather H.S.’s Social Science Department Chair, and she coached debate at Mather for seven years (in a great co-coach pairing with Diane Munoz, who’s now the Mather English Department Chair). Lynne was a 2011 winner of a ING Unsung Heroes Teaching Award, which was a $2,000 gift, with the prospect of winning up to $25,000. (ING is an international institutional investment firm.) Lynne asked that this year’s application be distributed to all CDL coaches, knowing as she does that there are very many outstanding educators in the CDL. Its deadline is next spring (April, 2012).
