- Would you like to show someone how much you appreciate them?
- Do you have a colleague that is an unsung hero and deserves to be recognized?
- Do you have a student who has gone above and beyond to set themselves apart?
- If the answer to any of these questions is "Yes," then you should consider giving an appreciation award. The awards are only $20 which covers the cost of production.
Your colleague or student will get a framed award certificate from you, written by you. (You may submit a maximum of 75 words to summarize why the individual is receiving the award.) That person will receive a letter and invitiation to the Appreciation Awards Reception on Thursday evening of the convention. You will have the option of presenting the award yourself or the KAHPERD President will make the presentation if you so choose.

KAHPERD is aware that it is sometimes difficult to talk about your profession with people who are not familiar with physical education and physical activity. KAHPERD Council have put together some excellent talking points to help lead this discussion.
“Let’s Move in School” just got bigger and better! “Let’s Move! Active Schools” which grew from AAHPERD’s Let’s Move in School project has been announced as an initiative of First Lady Michelle Obama to bring physical activity back to schools. This is a great opportunity for you to be a leader in promoting the importance of physical activity and KAHPERD’s goals. Sign up today at www.LetsMoveSchools.org! The Comprehensive School Physical Activity Program model will continue to be used as a foundation to promote a variety of physical activity strategies.
