MREA will livestream its Awards Banquet on Monday from Cragun’s on Gull Lake where it will honor the leadership, innovation and devotion of four top educators in the state, two school programs and two key leaders. Join us on the livestream around 6:25 pm when the ceremony begins.
“While nothing can replace being there and feeling the energy in the room, we know we don’t have space for everyone who wants to be there. There are students, parents, school staff and entire communities behind each of these awards that want to be a part of the celebration,” MREA Executive Director Fred Nolan. “So, we are partnering again this year with Flyer Media Productions, a student production crew from Little Falls Public Schools led by Mark Diehl to allow our entire state to see the inspiring work happening in Greater Minnesota education.”
