Canyons District Announces 2014 Apex Award Honorees

“The apex of my civic pride and personal contentment was reached on the bright September morning when I entered public school.” – Mary Antin, author

The Canyons Board of Education and Administration are pleased to announce the winners of the 2014 Apex Awards, the highest honors given in Canyons District.  This year’s recipients are:

“The people and organizations honored this year know well what it takes to reach the top,” said Board President Sherril H. Taylor.  “Through their words and deeds, they have not just followed the paths in front of them. They have, in the spirit of the poet Emerson, gone where there was no path – and blazed a trail for others to follow. ”

The honorees were feted Tuesday, Sept. 9, 2014 at a by-invitation-only banquet and ceremony at the Gathering Place at Gardner Village. The awards, started in 2010, serve as tributes to the dedication and professionalism of educators, employees and community partners.

Lucie Chamberlain

Alta View Elementary

Fortunately for her kindergarten students at Alta View Elementary, she already thrives in a supporting role for them. Parents thank her for being a “super teacher.” She is also described as an “amazing colleague.” Whether students need help in the classroom or from home while sick, Lucie goes above and beyond to help them learn, overcome fears, and feel important and cared for. Lucie is the reason a number of kids went from hating school to loving it, according to parents. The way she exudes patience, sweetness, positive energy, and love for her students with special needs melts is appreciated and admired. One parent noted: “Both my kids wish she could be their teacher forever.” Another added:  “She treats every student like their learning and their feelings are her priority.” Super teacher, indeed!
