The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, HISTORY®, and Preserve America are honored to celebrate the outstanding work that Marsha does in the classroom. A panel of teachers, administrators, and academics from Maine chose Marsha for her use of primary documents in the classroom, the level of inspiration that she provides to her students and her career achievements in education.
As

award, a certificate of recognition, an archive of books and historical
resources presented in her name to the HMS school library, and an

recognized at a ceremony in Maine. She is also a finalist
for the $10,000 National History Teacher of the Year Award. The winner of the national competition will be announced in the
early fall.
