Dyane Smokorowski

Dyane Smokorowski, an eighth grade language arts teacher at Andover Middle School, has been honored as one of the National School Boards Association's "20 to Watch" educators for 2009.

The recognition is to identify emerging leaders who will be helping to shape the world of education technology for the next 20 years. The 20 educators identified in the 2009 search range from classroom teachers and technology directors to an association leader.

Smokorowski and the 19 other technology leaders will be recognized at NSBA’s annual Technology and Learning Conference, Oct. 28-30, in Denver.

Here is Smokorowski's biography, per the the National School Boards Association's website.
