Shazam!
Daily, anyone can nominate a public, private or parochial teacher. The contest opened December 1, 2011 and ends, March 31, 2012. If you start today, that’s 120 votes per person. Advertise this to your classroom, school, community, friends (can you say Facebook?) or leave a comment below and on the Penniless Teacher Facebook page to solicit votes.
Want to know what I would do? I would select ONE teacher in the school, advertise for that ONE teacher in the school so the school has a better chance of winning the grand prize.
