Christopher K. Smith Memorial Future Teacher Scholarship
$4,000
Overview Duty-free lunch periods are now a standard element in nearly every DSEA-negotiated collective bargaining agreement, but that wasn’t always the case.

Smith taught in the Georgetown and Colonial School Districts and later served two terms as Delaware’s representative on the NEA Board of Directors. He died unexpectedly in 1989. To honor his contributions to public education and union advocacy,...
