Everyone loves teachers.
I still think about some of the best teachers I had growing up in small town East Texas: Mrs. Terrell, Mrs. Phipps and Mr. McComic. They were really the ones who challenged me to see the world through a creative lens in writing and being my own person. I guess they might be to blame for all the sassiness!
Teachers are hard working, inspirational, dedicated and woefully underpaid for being such an important component in developing our future leaders.
Coming up this Monday, May 6th, is teacher appreciation week. It gives us all an opportunity to spread the love to the educators in our lives. My immediate family has 12 current or retired teachers,coaches and professors. I can bear witness to many long evenings spent grading papers, making lesson plans and attending school functions. But they wouldn’t want to do anything else. The teaching profession is definitely a calling.
Well, our friends at Whataburger want to thank and show their appreciation to teachers by treating them to breakfast!
During the week of Monday, May 6th through Friday, May 10th, any school employee who shows their ID badge inside or in the drive-thru lane can enjoy a free Taquito, Breakfast on a Bun, or Honey Butter Biscuit. The hours are 5am to 9am for all those early to rise teachers!
But Whataburger doesn’t stop there because they are sassy like that! They are taking the opportunity to award 63 teachers a grant in the amount of $1000 for their school to continue supporting the educators and their students beyond the teacher appreciation week.
Wow, Whataburger!
Thank you for showing all the love, food and funds to our teachers.
Now, I want a Whataburger Jr with everything plus mayo and a diet Dr. Pepper.
And an extra special thank you to my niece, Lindsey Monaghan. She is the kindergarten teacher at Leverett’s Chapel ISD. It is a tiny school district that is doing great big things!
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week.
Stay Sassy Y’all.
