Overview & Eligibility | Submission of Entries | Award Winners

The New Jersey Association of Partners in Education defines a "partnership in education" as a collaborative effort between a school(s) or school district(s) and one or more community organizations with the purpose of improving the academic and personal growth of America's youth. Businesses, government and community agencies, community clubs and organizations, foundations, colleges and universities, religious organizations, the media, health care agencies, labor organizations, and parent organizations may join in partnership to support school improvement and reform.

Nominated programs must have existed for at least two years. The individual, school district or organization being nominated, must be a member of the New Jersey Association of Partners in Education to qualify for the award.

Nominations will be evaluated on the following criteria:

  • Uniqueness of the program
  • Stability
  • Relationship to the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards
