Physics alumna wins the Marcellus Waddill Excellence in Teaching Award

The Marcellus Waddill Excellence in Teaching Award is given annually to the two Wake Forest alumni who are exemplary classroom teachers in public or private schools. Established in 1994, the award is named in honor of Professor Emeritus Marcellus Waddill and funded by his son, David. The Waddill Award offers one of the largest monetary awards -- $20,000 to each winner -- of any teacher recognition award in the country.

This year's winners are Deborah Waldron and Diedre Steed. Deborah graduated in 1990 with a B.S. degree in physics. She teaches physics at Yorktown High School in Alexandria Virginia. Diedre Steed, Class of '88, teaches kindergarten at Candor Elementary in Candor, NC.
