The Mavericks and The UPS Store have announced the continuation of the Teacher Recognition Program, created to recognize Metroplex educators for their work in the classroom. Students in grades K-12 are asked to nominate their teachers by visiting the info page at mavs.com or any Metroplex UPS location to obtain an application and explain why their teacher deserves to be recognized. Ten winning teachers will each receive $1,000 for themselves and $1,000 for their school, as well as tickets to a Mavs game and recognition during halftime.
“Teachers and educators have the most important jobs in America-preparing our kids for the future,” owner Mark Cuban said. “The Mavs are proud to again team up with The UPS Store to recognize some of these outstanding individuals who often don't get the credit they deserve.”
To qualify, all nomination forms must be legible and filled out in their entirety, including an essay of 150 words or less about why the teacher should be recognized. All entries must be received by Friday, March 14, 2008.
The Teacher Recognition Program is an extension of the NBA Cares initiative. A special thanks to KRLD News Radio 1080 and 98.7 K-LUV for supporting the Teacher Recognition Program.
