Stephanie Vagas and Lindsay Ignazio awarded Franklin B. Walter Outstanding Educator Award

Stephanie Vagas and Lindsay Ignazio were awarded the Franklin B. Walter Outstanding Educator Award!

The Franklin B. Walter award is given to an educator or team from each of the 16 State Support Teams in Ohio who have made extraordinary contributions to the education of exceptional students. This award is given in honor of the late Franklin B Walter, Superintendent of Public Instruction from 1977 until 1991, a post held longer than any other state superintendent in Ohio’s history. With over 50 years of service as a teacher and administrator, Dr. Walter’s leadership is evident in many of Ohio’s quality educational initiatives and programs. Among these is the development of the nation’s first statewide plan for exceptional students.

Congratulations to Stephanie and Lindsay! We congratulate them on their extraordinary commitment and support to our students.
