Although we recognize that all classified staff makes a difference at their respective colleges and districts, the California Community Colleges Classified Senate wants to extend statewide the local recognition that many of our colleagues have received in their local districts for excellence in service, leadership and participation during this last year.
The California Community Colleges Classified Senate (4CS) is a non-profit public benefit corporation formed by classified employees that works to promote leadership development among community college classified employees. As part of our annual Classified Leadership Institute held each year in June we recognize and honor outstanding classified employee(s) of the year from across the state, and we would like to include your classified honorees in this graphic presentation. We will also accept classified of the month and group awards. Please send your award winner's information to us in order that your college's recognition program can be extended statewide and for us to include them in this year's recognition ceremony in June and eventually on the 4CS Web site for all to see.
It is our sincere hope at least one classified staff member from your college plans to attend this event and enjoy the Award's Dinner and the entire conference. Institute registration applications will be available in the spring and can be downloaded from the 4CS Web site or requested. We really want to recognize your outstanding classified staff that has received awards at your colleges and districts this year. Please help by sending us the information. Thank you for your time, dedication and efforts to do so.
For your college or district's award winner(s), please email a brief biographical statement including all of the following information:
• The name of employee - please double-check spelling,
• The name of college or district at which they
work,
• Their positive, personal characteristics (at least
two or three),
• Their achievements that have led to receiving the award,
• The official name of the award received (examples:

• A photograph of the person or group

Submission Deadline:
We need to receive your award winner's information no

We would prefer that you email your information and photographs, but if you must "paper mail" information, please mail it in time to meet our working deadline. All biographical statements and photos should be sent directly via email to Pat Murray (pmurray@ccccs.org). If for any reason you cannot make these deadlines or have questions concerning this activity, contact Pat Murray directly for any additional options and information.
