Below are some quotes from our program sponsors:
“The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) realizes
that the most successful way to expose our youth to engineering is through their
teachers. For this reason, the New Hampshire Section of the IEEE is pleased
to support and participate in Leadership Teacher.”
- Dean Bacon, Chairman
IEEE, New Hampshire Section
Manager, Distribution Maintenance
Public Service of New Hampshire
“As a representative of a major New Hampshire company, we know it's in
everyone's interest to raise the visibility of engineering and leadership among
our young people. Leadership Teacher builds a strong bridge between industry
and the classroom to greatly improve understanding and excitement about these
opportunities.”
- Michael Heffron, VP Engineering
BAE SYSTEMS, IEWS, Nashua, NH
“Leadership Teacher is like a mini sabbatical—it gets you out of
the classroom and provides time to explore new ideas and relationships, which
will make you a better teacher in the future.”
- William Kellogg, President
New Hampshire Council on World Affairs, Concord, NH
“As a Leadership Teacher Steering Committee co-chair and member of the
business community, I can attest to the value of the program well beyond its
intended benefit to participating educators. The process of putting together
our 'day' compelled us to think about the relationship between our professional
skills and the needs of society at large. As we shared those skills with participating
teachers, we found ourselves feeling validated for the work we do. The exchange
between business people and Leadership Teacher participants opens new and important
avenues of communication, and we are all beneficiaries.”
- Ric Waldman, Director of Marketing and Education
Capitol Center for the Arts, Concord, NH
