Palm Beach County School District Mathematics Program Planner Diana Snider has nominated Royal Palm Beach High School teacher Scott Dobbs for a Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching (PAEMST).
The award is the highest recognition that a math or science teacher can receive in the United States. Awardees are heralded with a presidential certificate, a trip to Washington, D.C, and a $10,000 prize. Awarded for more than 30 years, PAEMST teachers serve as models for their colleagues, an inspiration to their communities, and leaders in the improvement of math and science education.
