OnPoint Prize for Excellence in Education
The 2020 campaign kicks off February 18.
Help OnPoint Honor Our Community's Best Educators
It’s no secret that OnPoint Community Credit Union feels passionately about education and its impact on the community. Since 2010, we’ve recognized over 275 deserving teachers and their schools for outstanding teaching methods and a demonstrated commitment to making a difference for students, parents and their peers. It’s almost that time again.
In 2020, we’re celebrating 11 years of the OnPoint Prize, bringing back our popular Educator of the Year and Community Builder awards. Our 2020 Educators of the Year (one for grades K-8 and one for grades 9-12) will have their mortgage paid for one year. The Community Builder award will provide four schools with a $2,000 prize, while one lucky school, determined by online community votes, will receive a $5,000 prize.
Be sure to check back on February 18, 2020 for more information!
