We are pleased to announce that the application for this year’s TELL Award is now available. This year, the LHRIC will honor recipients in three categories: Outstanding Innovative Teacher, Outstanding Innovative Instructional Technology Coach, and Outstanding Innovative Leader. 

These prestigious awards reflect the recognition by their peers in the region of the honorees’ overall excellence, their vision, their ability to inspire others, and the demonstrated effectiveness and sustainability in their use of instructional technology.

Award recipients will be invited to attend the TELL Award event on March 6, 2025, 8:30 am-1:00 pm at the Edith Macy Conference Center in Briarcliff Manor, New York. Recipients will be asked to assist LHRIC staff with a brief biography for the official program and should plan on a short speech (between one and three minutes in length) during the ceremony.

To help inspire you to apply, we’ve assembled a collection of videos from last year’s leader award winners. If you see yourself in their stories and want to tell your own — enter your work for consideration.

APPLICATION DEADLINE JAN 10, 2025

Award recipients will be notified around January 28, 2025. For questions, contact Mary Lynn Collins (mcollins@lhric.org) or Leslie Accardo (laccardo@lhric.org).
