EVENT: VENICE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE’S WAVE AWARDS
The Venice Chamber of Commerce Education Committee hosted their 5th Annual Wave Awards at the Venice Boys and Girls Club on May 14, 2015. Thirteen local teachers were recognized and honored at the awards dinner.
ABOUT: The WAVE Awards were launched in 2011 to acknowledge the enormous contribution teachers make every day to the children of Venice and the surrounding areas. Teachers are nominated and selected by their peers for excellence and recognized at an awards dinner. The event has also become a forum for educators, parents and community leaders to share ideas and build relationships.
