The Danville Public School Foundation is proud to sponsor these awards. Established in 2001, they are named for Dr. David L.

He later served 10 years on the Illinois State Board of Education and is currently a Director of the Danville Public School Foundation.
At the Board of Education’s meeting on Thursday, June 2, 6:30pm, these teachers will be formally recognized for their achievement. Along with the formal recognition, the Foundation provides a $500 cash award, the District provides $500 in instructional supplies for the teacher’s classroom and the Danville Education Association provides an engraved paperweight acknowledging their accomplishment.
