Nomination for the Irena Sendler Award
It was an absolutely exceptional evening. Surrounded by amazing and wonderfully warm-hearted people, I had the privilege of being nominated for the Irena Sendler Award 'For Repairing the World.' For me, it's more than just an accolade – it's a true honor.
I warmly thank the Center for Civic Education for recognizing the work of teachers like myself in such a special and thoughtful way. To be a part of that gala, to have the opportunity to watch a performance about the incredible life of Irena Sendler, and above all, to meet so many wonderful teachers who give their all every day to make this world a better place – that was an invaluable experience. Each of us does important work, often for those who are weaker and more in need.
I couldn't overlook my Students, who surprised me with their nomination. Thank you for these beautiful words and for appreciating what we create together in our unique school of free people. I would like to dedicate this extraordinary distinction to my Grandparents: Stefania and Kazimierz. It was from them that I learned to see the good in people. Their teachings, such as honesty, respect, humility, and the desire for true encounters, are what I strive to pass on to my students. I want each of them to feel important and valued.

I also cannot fail to mention the awardee – Jakub Tylman. Congratulations, Jakub! Your work and dedication are an inspiration to us all. For over 16 years, the Irena Sendler Award has been recognizing teachers who, with their passion and dedication, influence the development of their students, awakening empathy, sensitivity, and the desire to act in them. Being part of this exceptional group is a true honor. Thank you.
