Cloud was surprised during a high school assembly meeting Jan. 13 by a delegation from Lexmark's Lexington division, which awarded him an INSPIRE Teacher Award and a check for $1,000 to be used to enhance his program. The INSPIRE program recognizes outstanding central Kentucky area middle and high school science, technology, engineering and math teachers.
