We all have had a wonderful teacher in our lives, am I right? I remember growing up and just adoring my 8th grade history teacher, he was awesome!
Now that my two oldest kids are in school, they have had memorable teachers that went above and beyond their duties, that is for sure. Now I want to thank one of them!
The fun fashion resale site, thredUP.com, has partnered with AdoptAClassroom.org to recognize and thank teachers for their hard work and the positive impact they make each day on our children’s lives, so I wanted to participate in this a nominate a teacher from my children’s school!
I am nominating Dr. Connelly from Carroll’s Elementary School! He is the principal at my kid’s school and he does an amazing job! He is always doing wonderful things for the kids at Carroll’s and the kids adore him! He is just an all-around great teacher/principal!
Teachers are extremely generous with their time as well as their money. According to AdoptAClassroom.org, teachers spend an average of $500 of their own money each year to equip their classrooms. 70% of teachers have even purchased apparel items like jackets, socks and shoes for their students! Teachers are truly amazing people and they definitely deserve to be recognized!
Want To Nominate A Teacher Too?
The nomination period is July 15 – August 23rd. Three teachers will win $2,500 for their classroom supplies AND $500 to thredUP! Plus, 50 runner-up winners will receive $100 to thredUP!!
The winners will be announced on Tuesday, September 8th!

My son has only had one teacher so far but she really was excellent! She’s been a kindergarten teacher at his school since it opened almost 20 years ago and she’s well known in our community for how great she is. I’ll definitely be nominating her!
Jennifer says
well of course, I LOVE this!! Will definitely be putting in a nomination for my daughter’s 4th grade teacher. She was great and helped my daughter like no other teacher before her has.

This is just great! I love when companies work to recognize teacher who give so much! I’ll have to look into nominating my boy’s teacher!
Stephanie R says
I love this so much! I feel that teachers aren’t paid nearly enough considering what they do to help teach our kids, and its even worse that they have to pay for the majority of their supplies.
Robin (Masshole Mommy) says
How awesome is this? I love to hear about companies recognizing teachers – if anyone deserves to be celebrated, they do!
