About The NHSTA Howard I. Wagner Award

Howard I. Wagner was a long time science teacher and department chair at Laconia High School. In 1953, he served as the president of the NHSTA's predecessor organization, the Science Section of the New Hampshire State Teachers' Association. From 1959 to 1970, he served as the first science education consultant in the New Hampshire State Department of Education. In that capacity, Howard actively promoted the improvement of science education in New Hampshire and throughout the nation. His influence on the many science education reforms of the 1960's was truly significant. During this period, he was one of the founders and an early president of the Council of State Science Supervisors and he served as a director of the National Science Teachers' Association.
