Outstanding Traffic Education Teacher of the Year Award

Since 1988, MTEA has routinely honored an outstanding Traffic Education teacher with an annual Teacher of the Year (TOY) award presented at MTEA's spring conference. Any active teacher who has devoted a good part of their teaching career to traffic education is eligible to apply for the award. Teachers can self-nominate or be nominated by someone who is familiar with their traffic education work. The deadline for the nomination form is March 1st, so don't delay!
Download the two-page nomination form from the website at MTEAOnline.org (which includes a section that is completed by the candidate). Members of the selection committee will then review the application. Contact Jim Carroll, Executive Secretary, at 406-278-7856 with any questions.

Outstanding Traffic Education Contributor of the Year Award

MTEA recognizes companies, organizations, and individuals who make generous contributions of their time, energy, equipment and/or expertise to support and sustain the mission of the MTEA. To nominate a person or business for this honor, download the COY nomination form at MTEAOnline.org and submit to MTEA by the March 1st deadline. Members of the selection committee will then review the application.
The Outstanding Contributor/Sustainer of the Year will be recognized at MTEA's spring conference in April.
Examples of outstanding contributors or sustainers are MVD driver examiners who have gone out of their way to assist driver education teachers with their CDTP requirements and needs; car dealerships who have loaned vehicles to local school districts for their traffic education programs, and local experts who have visited driver education classes to share their knowledge about various topics such as tire safety, distracted driving, or DUI prevention; as well as business development organizations that have funded materials, equipment and learning tools for your TE program. Contact Jim Carroll, Executive Secretary, at 406-278-7856 with any questions.

If you are retiring from education / TE and have been an active MTEA member, we would like to honor you at the upcoming spring conference.
