Mrs. Karen Kuntzman
CONGRATULATIONS to Mrs. Karen Kuntzman, Principal of North Elementary School, for receiving the Award of Meritorious Service in the Admin category from the Illinois State Board of Education. 

Since 1970, the Illinois State Board of Education has sponsored the Those Who Excel & Teacher of the Year program to honor educators who have made significant contributions to our state's public and nonpublic elementary and secondary schools. Awards are presented in seven categories: classroom teachers, early career educators (teachers 1-4 years), school administrators, student support personnel, educational service personnel, community volunteers, and teams. Application materials are evaluated by a selection committee composed of individuals who represent a variety of educational organizations. All awardees are honored at an annual banquet in the Spring.
