Princeton University will honor four outstanding New Jersey secondary school teachers at its 2021
on Sunday, May 16.
This year’s recipients of the Princeton Prize for Distinguished Secondary School Teaching are Mina Armani of José Martí STEM Academy, Jametta Clarke of Lawrence High School, Christine Lim of Pennsauken High School and Andrew Teheran of East Side High School.
The teachers were selected for the award based on nominations from public and private schools around the state. They each will receive $5,000, as well as $3,000 for their school libraries.
The Tulane University School of Professional Advancement (SoPA) hosted its annual Faculty Convocation on Friday, March 26, during which recipients from both 2020 and 2021 were recognized for their outstanding accomplishments in the classroom.
“This convocation is about recognizing the contributions you make to our students and to our school,” said SoPA Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Ilianna Kwaske to the faculty. “In the midst of so many uncertainties, challenges, and changes, you all have persevered in your commitment to our students.”
The 2020 event, typically held in March at Tulane’s 1834 Club, was canceled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During this year’s virtual convocation, both faculty and students tuned in to show support for the recipients.

This guide empowers teachers to create a positive and engaging learning environment that is grounded in the student-teacher relationship. Garwood is a professor of special education at the University of Vermont, where he teaches courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels focused on behavior management, academic intervention and inclusion. He completed his doctorate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and for two years prior to coming to UVM was an assistant professor at Appalachian State University. H
