Market Street & Mrs Baird’s Bread honor three North Texas area teachers as Teachers on the Rise for November
FRISCO, Texas — The United Family and Mrs Baird’s Bread® announced the November winners of the fifth annual Teachers On The Rise program. Since the program’s launch in August, nominations have poured in from students and families across North Texas highlighting how teachers go above and beyond the call of duty and deserve special recognition.
Congratulations to our winners from November: Denise Francis of McKinney Christian Academy, Katie Webb of Coppell Middle School East (Coppell ISD), and Grace Schuetze of Mansfield High School (Mansfield ISD).
“Our teachers go above and beyond every single day, and it feels great to shine a spotlight on their hard work,” said Abie Rampy, director of public relations for The United Family. “This program is one of our favorite ways to celebrate the heart of our communities, and we can’t wait to see the amazing educators who will be honored in the months ahead.”
"With more than 380 nominations already this school year, we are hearing about great accounts of outstanding educators in North Texas classrooms,” said Shane Sumrow, the program’s director. “We encourage students and families to continue sending in nominations all school year. With Thanksgiving around the corner, this is a perfect time to tell us why you are thankful for your teachers."
Winning teachers receive a $100 Market Street gift card, a $100 American Express gift card from Mrs Baird’s, and a gift basket full of Mrs Baird’s goodies. The students who nominate a winning teacher also receive a $50 American Express gift card.
