Once again, NJEA has partnered with Beasley Media New Jersey Group for the Teachers Who Rock/Teachers Who Make Magic program. These programs recognize 72 outstanding teachers and three Educational Support Professionals in New Jersey who are making a difference in their students’ lives. They are someone who has gone above and beyond in their dedication either professionally or personally in service to their home or school community. This program is a part of The NJEA Community Service Spotlight, broadcast in several radio markets.
Each educator will be honored at an awards banquet, receive special gifts, banquet tickets, a Class of 2023-2043 Award, and their stories will be read on stage.
Beasley Media Group will be sure to feature NJEA as the sponsor of both the Community Service Spotlight and ESP awards in the reading of the winning educators’ announcements in each stations’ morning show, on Friday Mornings during the promotion.
Starting back in December 2023, winning educators and their stories will be announced on air each Friday on WMGQ 98.3 FM, WDHA 105.5 FM, WMTR 1250 AM, WRAT 95.9 FM, and WJRZ 100.1 FM.
