Here is a message from Venice Chamber Education Committee’s and Ecole Claire Fontaine’s Joelle Dumas!
The WAVE Awards is a spectacular community event that unites educators from local schools & art institutions. Each celebrated teacher has been nominated by their peers for outstanding accomplishments in the classroom. At an Oscar-like Gala, the WAVE Awardees are able to expand on what they love about teaching – their colleagues & students. For the year of 2020, instead of the usual month of May, the WAVE Awards have been temporarily postponed, but everyday educators remain true heroes.
