Hilhi’s Don Domes Selected as Finalist in OnPoint Prize for Excellence in Education Contest

Last Updated Oct 2010












Hilhi Technology Teacher Don Domes was named a Finalist in the OnPoint Prize for Excellence in Education contest (visit www.onpointprize.com).  The contest seeks to recognize outstanding educators in the counties served by sponsor OnPoint Credit Union. 

Criteria are that the educators demonstrate creativity and enthusiasm in the classroom; employ exemplary teaching methods; and have a lasting impact on students, parents and peers. 

In one letter of support for Don, parents Curt and Sheryl Loberger explained: “As technology is constantly improving so is Mr. Domes, his technology department, and his teaching skills. He knows each student is an individual and helps develop each of them to become self-sufficient in the real world.  He is a teacher who believes in hands-on training for kids as they build, create, and solve various problems.” 

For his selection as a finalist, Don earned a $1,500 cash award for himself as well as $1,500 for Hilhi to be used for resources and supplies.
