Salida High School chemistry and physical science teacher Todd Bright was honored when Boettcher Scholarship finalist Fin Petit nominated him for a Boettcher teacher recognition award recently.

The Boettcher Foundation began recognizing “teachers who have dedicated themselves to providing Colorado students with an outstanding education” in 1992.

Each student who makes it to the finalist level of the Boettcher Scholarship application process is asked to nominate a teacher who contributed significantly to their success.
