Upper School Science Teacher Andrea Chou Recognized for Teaching Excellence

The award recognizes K-12 teachers for “inspiring students in math, science and engineering fields.
Upper School science teacher Andrea Chou was awarded the 2023 William Dahlgren Teacher of Excellence Award, presented by the Society for the Advancement of Materials and Process Engineering (SAMPE).
 
The award recognizes K-12 teachers for “inspiring students in math, science and engineering fields, particularly classes directed toward learning the fields of plastics and general entrepreneurship activities.
 
Ms. Chou teaches chemistry at St. Margaret’s. She has introduced new, interdisciplinary units to her courses in recent years, including an exploration of polymer sciences last year that culminated in a polymer synthesis lab where students made nylon and later teamed with English IV students to write poems on the topic of fabric chemistry.
 
SAMPE is a global professional member society that provides information on new materials and processing technology, providing a unique and valuable forum for scientists, engineers and academicians.
 
Congratulations Ms. Chou!
