Outstanding Earth Science Teacher Awards
The National Association of Geoscience Teachers (NAGT) Outstanding
Earth Science Teacher (OEST) Awards are administered by the Geological
Society of America (GSA). This is a yearly award that recognizes excellence in
earth-science teaching at the precollege level.
The Geological Society of America awards the section recipients $500 travel money to
attend a GSA meeting. The winners can also apply for up to $500 for classroom
supplies. The Award also includes an award certificate, a complimentary membership
in GSA for three years for section recipients and a one year complimentary membership for state recipients, plus information on GSA educational programs and events.
