Meredith White
2024 Recipient
The SCOLT Board of Directors presents the Founders Award when deemed appropriate to a member who has made significant contributions to SCOLT over the years and who exemplifies the spirit and ideals of the founders of the organization.
I am honored to be the recipient of this year’s Founder’s Award and awestruck at the company I get to keep, both in the SCOLT region in general and among the previous recipients. Getting to work with the incredible educators across our region has been the pleasure of my career, and I am so grateful to SCOLT for the opportunities and support. I look forward to many more years together in hopes that I can give back to the profession even a fraction of what’s been generously given to me in the name of enjoyable, engaging, equitable language teaching and learning.
