11th Sep 2019
In anticipation of the next generation of outstanding Latino teachers in Arizona, Chicanos Por La Causa (CPLC) is receiving nominations for their 21st Annual Esperanza Latino Teacher Awards. This unique event is presented by Cox Communications and SRP in collaboration with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona.
After a statewide search, four winning teachers will be selected and honored at a special awards ceremony on October 23rd at ASU Gammage Auditorium. CPLC will present a $5,000 cash award to each honoree along with a stipend of $2,500 to their respective schools.
CPLC recognizes the importance of a quality education and believes it is crucial that everyone has the opportunity of obtaining a solid foundation that an education provides. We believe that teachers are at the forefront of providing this lasting impact in and out of the classroom. This is why CPLC has recognized more than 100 leading Latino educators since 1998.
