Abstract: The purpose of the Recognizing Inspirational School

excellence exhibited by classified school employees who provide
exemplary service to students in pre-kindergarten through high school
and to inspire innovation and excellence among all classified school
employees. A classified school employee is an employee of a state or
any political subdivision of a state or an employee of a nonprofit
entity who works in any grade from pre-kindergarten through high school
in any of the following occupational specialties: paraprofessional
clerical and administrative services transportation services food and
nutrition services custodial and maintenance services security services
health and student services technical services and skilled trades. The
terms used have the meaning given the terms in section 8101 of the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 7801). The
U.S. Department of Education (Department) invites the governor of each
state to nominate up to two classified school employees by November 1
annually. Prior to May 31 of each year, the Secretary of Education
shall select a single classified employee to receive the national RISE
Award for that school year. The Department will communicate the
national honoree-s story in order to inspire other innovative practices
and excellence among classified school employees nationwide.
