PERRYSBURG - Jody Germann, of Bowling Green, has been recognized with the 2013 Penta Career Center Teacher of the Year award.
Germann, an instructor of Landscape & Turfgrass Management, was recognized in May during a special all staff meeting at Penta.
He was nominated by his fellow peers for his contributions to the mission of career-technical education and for his dedication to his students.
He has been an instructor at Penta since 2005.
Germann has a very simple educational philosophy. "Every student has a passion, and as educators, we need to help students find their passion and motivate them to learn as much about it as they can," says Germann. "In my class I try to expose the students to many aspects of the landscape and turfgrass industry so they find their passion and learn what great opportunities are available to them."
