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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
