It’s time to nominate those who have gone the distance for students with special needs. Nominations for this school year are due by April 12th.

Each year the Northborough Southborough Special Education Parent Advisory Council dedicates a night to honoring people who have made a positive difference to special needs students in our district.

As usual, any student, family member, or guardian of a student on a 504 Plan or IEP in the Northborough or Southborough Public School District is free to submit one nomination per child to:

recognize one individual who has made a positive impact in your child’s life during this current 2023 – 2024 academic year. This person can be a bus driver, teacher, cafeteria worker, paraprofessional, support staff member, another student, or community employee (such as a coach, dance teacher, or librarian). It should be an individual who has made a significant contribution in enhancing the life of your child.

As always, every person nominated will be formally recognized during the Go the Distance Award Ceremony. For the nomination form and more details, click here.

Looking back, it doesn’t look like I posted the 2023 Award Recipients. Below is the list of winners from Southborough schools, Algonquin and the community. (To see winners from Northborough K-8 schools, click here for the full list.)
