Each project is judged on its 1) innovative methods; 2) creativity; and 3) ability to positively influence students. All K-12 education professionals, whether or not they are clients of ING, are eligible. Specifically, these individuals must be employed by an accredited K-12 public or private school located in the United States and be full-time educators, teachers, principals, paraprofessionals, or classified staff with effective projects that improve student learning.
