Published July 11, 2008 11:53 am - Claremore teacher among finalists for state award Tom Fink
Denise Radcliff of Claremore has been named one of 12 finalists for the state’s 2009 “Teacher of the Year” award. State Superintendent Sandy Garrett made the announcement on Wednesday, during the state education department’s leadership conference for school administrators. Radcliff is an educator at Claremore High School, teaching science classes which include pre-AP Biology, Anatomy and Physiology, and Honors Human Body System. Currently, Radcliff is in Maryland, teaching a two-week summer Human Body Systems course to other teachers at Stephenson (formerly Villa Julie) College. She is the mother of four daughters, one of whom recalls times when former students would praise Radcliff for her teaching prowess. “When I was in college at the University of Arkansas, I used to have students stop me on campus and tell me how great a teacher my mom was,” said Rachel Radcliff, daughter of Denise Radcliff. “They’d tell me that Biology in college was a breeze because of her.” The winner will be announced during a ceremony at the Oklahoma State Fair on Sept. 16.
