Ringer Award /

Bell Ringer Award

The Allen Independent School District Bell Ringer Award recognizes AISD employees for service on behalf of children "above and beyond" their regular job responsibilities. Any AISD employee may nominate any other AISD employee for the award.

Criteria for Selection

·  Willingness to go "above and beyond" what would be considered normal job responsibilities on behalf of students and/or the school district as demonstrated through specific actions.

·  Ability and willingness to work cooperatively with fellow employees.

Nomination Process

Candidates for the AISD Bell Ringer Awards may be nominated by any other AISD employee by returning the nomination form to the Public Information Office or e-mailing the Public Information Office by Wednesday, April 25, 2007. Any number of candidates from any school or department may be nominated for the AISD Bell Ringer Awards. All nominations will remain confidential. Only the 2007 Bell Ringer Award recipients will be publicly recognized.

Qualifications

Any AISD employee, full-time or part-time, is eligible to be nominated for the Bell Ringer Award.

Selection Process

Nominations will be received until 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 25. A selection committee consisting of two administrators, one teacher and two support staff members will then make a decision based upon the nominations. Verification of some nominations may be necessary. The number of awards will be determined each year based upon nominations. The award recipients will be announced at the AISD Employee Convocation on Monday, August 20.

Recognition – Not Competition

Selecting the Bell Ringer Award winners is not a competition to choose the school district's best employees. It is only intended to recognize those employees who have gone "above and beyond" the call of duty for the current school year.
