Nominations
From time to time, the Governance Committee of the Board of Trustees will nominate members of the ASL community for consideration by the Board of Trustees for the Cruikshank Award. All members of the ASL community are eligible, except for current employees and trustees. It is not necessarily awarded on an annual basis.

When solicited, nominations may be sent to the executive assistant to the Board of Trustees and should include the names of the nominee and the nominator, and the relationship between the two, as well as qualifications in terms of service to and engagement with the School.
