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 2022 Teacher Appreciation Event. Students, parents, and colleagues can nominate a teacher by sharing a public post on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram and describing why the teacher deserves recognition. The deadline to nominate is 11:59 p.m. on Monday, April 18. Make sure to use the hashtag #GeorgiasOwnTeacher.
On April 19, Georgia’s Own will select six teachers from among the nominees. Each of the six honorees will receive a $200 donation toward a classroom project. In addition, during the week of April 23, 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 in downtown Atlanta.
