GCPS families, it’s time to share the love for your favorite teachers! Georgia’s Own Credit Union is celebrating Atlanta-area educators during its Spring 2021 Teacher Appreciation Event. Community members can nominate a teacher by sharing a public post on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram and describe why the teacher deserves recognition. The deadline to nominate is 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday, April 6. Make sure to use the hashtag #GeorgiasOwnTeacher and tag the credit union with @georgiasowncu.
Georgia’s Own will select seven teachers from among the nominees. Each of the seven honorees will receive a $200 donation toward a classroom project. In addition, during the week of April 18, honorees will become a prominent feature on Atlanta’s iconic skyline as each will be pictured for 24 hours on a sign high atop the Georgia’s Own building.
