The Meffie Awards
Created by MEF and co-sponsored by the Rotary Club of Madison, the Meffie Awards celebrate innovation in teaching in Madison Public Schools. The award winning grants are selected based on several criteria, including demonstrating creativity and ingenuity in teaching, promoting collaboration with peers, and possessing the ability to reach a large portion of the student body. The Meffie Award winners are announced at the Madison Public Schools Teacher Convocation that kick off the new school year.
