Congratulations! Chief Sealth IHS teacher Noah Zeichner chosen as finalist for international prize

Chief Sealth International High School social-studies teacher Noah Zeichner has been announced as one of 50 finalists for a $1 million international award, the Global Teacher Prize. As pointed out in the Seattle Times (WSB partner) report on the announcement, Zeichner was honored by the Seattle-based World Affairs Council last March as Global Educator of the Year. One of his best-known projects at Sealth is World Water Week, which he co-founded with a then-student. From the 50 finalists, a Top 10 list will be announced in February, and the winner in March.

    Noah, congratulations! I’m facilitating a high school in North Carolina to explore what it means to become a Global Immersion School. We use the ever-expanding story of you and your high school as an inspiring case example.

    As a former student I can’t give enough praise to Noah and say that there is not a teacher more deserving.

Sorry, comment time is over.
