The Illinois Computing Educators (ICE) organization has selected Christopher M. Brown as the “2010 Outstanding Technology Using Educator of the Year.” Mr. Brown has served as both the technology coordinator for Avoca School District #37 and technology facilitator for Marie Murphy School in Wilmette since 2004. Marie Murphy School Principal Dr. Deanna Reed said, "Chris is so deserving of this recognition.” She adds, “His long-range vision has surely moved us to where technology in the classroom is an indispensable tool to the teaching-learning process and for ensuring maximum student learning outcomes."

The mission of the ICE organization is to lead the educational community in enhancing learning through technology. Candidates for the ICE Educator of the Year award are chosen for their outstanding contributions to the quality of education in their school district, as well as their accomplishments.

Mr. Brown will formally receive his award at the 2010 ICE Technology Conference at the Pheasant Run Resort and Convention Center in St. Charles, Illinois, at the end of February.

Marie Murphy School, located at 2921 Illinois Road, Wilmette, is a combination preschool and middle school with an enrollment of 294 students. The school is located in Avoca School District #37, which serves students from the communities of Wilmette, Glenview, Northfield, and Winnetka.
