Staff Recognition
Crystal Flame Awards
(Celebrating World Class Achievement
in Howard County Public Schools)
The Crystal Flame Awards recognize achievements by HCPSS staff in four areas considered strategically important to school system success. These awards also represent a new direction for Staff Recognition Awards based on the following criteria:
- Awards are based on demonstrated achievements.
- Groups (schools, committees, offices, teams, etc.) may be recognized, as well as individuals.
- All staff contributing to an achievement are eligible, regardless of position.
- A streamlined nomination process emphasizes results.
One award will be given in each of the following categories:
1. Leadership
2. Cultural Proficiency
3. Continuous Improvement
4. Communication and Public Engagement
Nominations for Crystal Flame Awards are due February 1, 2013. Winners will be selected and announced in spring 2013.
