Outstanding Educators Committee


The Outstanding Educators Committee works with future leaders of our community and honors those who help mold them. 
 
Two students from each of six area high schools are given an opportunity to introduce themselves to the Rotary members, and to learn about Rotary’s community, regional and international services, which are the fulfillment of the Rotary motto of “Service Above Self.”
 
The committee then organizes an end-of-the-school-year luncheon to honor outstanding educators nominated by those students. The students are asked to select teachers who they believe exemplify the Rotary motto, Service Above Self, and the values of Rotary as expressed in its Four Way Test (Is it the Truth? Is it Fair to all concerned? Will it build Goodwill and better Friendships? Will it be Beneficial to all concerned?)
 
The Outstanding Educators program and awards luncheon are a joint effort of the Rotary Clubs of Utica, North Utica/Whitestown, and Sauquoit.
