   The Science Teachers Association of New York State (STANYS) Southeastern Section named Meg Clark-Goldhammer, a third-grade teacher at Harry L. Edson Elementary School, as one of six recipients of its 2005 Outstanding Science Teachers Award. The prestigious award is given annually to New York State teachers in recognition of their dedication to science education.
   
   "It feels very good to be recognized, to have my work validated by my colleagues," says Clark-Goldhammer. "I love the work I do in science in the Kingston School District and all the other school districts I've worked in. It's all very affirming."
