The Walter A. Brodniak Cultural Education Award was created in 1977, upon Mr. Brodniak's retirement as Superintendent of the Anacortes School District, "to foster growth of the cultural arts in the District."
The award is given each spring to a student, faculty member, administrator, school director, community member or community organization that has made an outstanding contribution to the cultural arts in the Anacortes School District during the current year.
The recipient's name will be engraved on a permanent plaque and displayed at the district office. A $500 honorarium, funded by Mr. Brodniak's family, is also awarded.
Nominations will be accepted until Thursday, March 27, 2014. A selection committee consisting of administrators, students, faculty and community members will evaluate the nominations for the award and recommend one nomination to the School Board. For more information, contact the School District.
