Anne Grant isnât really a fan of gift receiving. In fact, she prefers the opposite much more.
A member of the Dryden Grange for nearly 30 years, Grant is the one who hands out awards annually to certain volunteers in the community. She also goes out of her way to submit an individual or group of volunteers to Tompkins Trust Companyâs annual volunteer awards.
âItâs like playing Santa Claus,â Grant said. Â
Gifts, honors, awards are all things that she never expects to receive. So when Grant found out she was the recipient of Gerald Eastman Award from the New York State Grange â an award that recognizes someone or a group of people who âexemplifies Christian values and influences others in a positive wayâ â she was, as she put it, âflabbergasted.â
Jamie McCaffrey of Newfield School District was awarded this yearâs Raymond Van Houtte Teacher Award along with four other recipients.Â
Tompkins Trust Company and the Legacy Foundation announced that the five Tompkins County teachers were recognized with certificates and monetary awards for their efforts to improve education in their districts.Â
McCaffrey was honored for 17 years of education service and a variety of contributions to the students, faculty, and staff of Newfield School District.Â
At the high school level, she was instrumental in bringing the Sources of Strength program, which cultivates student leadership, to the student body.Â
At the elementary school level, McCaffrey has coordinated the Red Paw Program, an initiative that awards students who consistently show exemplary behaviors and an alignment with the schoolâs code of conduct.
