Teacher Wins Award for Teaching Excellence

Head of School Andy Delinsky and Board Chair Jamie Foley presented the Disciplina ad Vivendum Award for teaching excellence to Upper School Math Teacher Amy Papandreou at the Welcome Back Dinner on September 7, 2018. Established in 2005, this award is the most distinguished award at Peck for a faculty member.

“Amy walks the walk and talks the talk of lifelong learning. We are grateful for her professionalism, service, and for holding firm to our highest standards at The Peck School. We are thrilled to celebrate her tonight.”

At Peck, educational objectives are clear: graduates will succeed academically, and will have the mindset and moral fiber to lead productive and principled lives. This requires a talented and capable faculty who are not only interested in who our students are today, but in the people they will become tomorrow. To adapt to changes in the educational landscape without sacrificing academic strengths and core values, faculty must constantly grow and learn themselves. The Disciplina Ad Vivendum award honors that commitment to lifelong learning.
