Maryland Professionals Receive Multiple Awards at AAHPERD

Congratulations to the following MAHPERD members who were recognized at the 2008 AAHPERD Convention in Fort Worth:

  • Middle School TOY- Debbie Buenger
  • AAHPERD Honor Award- Rick Wiles
  • Adapted TOY- Rocco Aiello
  • Ruth Abernathy Scholarship Award- Marina Bonello

Do you know of a college student who could use $1000?

Maybe a relative, neighbor, or student in your school would fit the criteria for a $1000 MAHPERD scholarship. If you are a high school teacher, is there a student you know that is planning on a profession in one of our disciplines? If you are on the faculty at a Maryland institution of higher learning, perhaps one of the students in your university could use financial assistance for the upcoming year. The deadline for both scholarships is May 1st. Not sure if they qualify? Click here for the criteria for the High School award and here for the College awards.

Applications: High School | College
