Superior Plumbing and the Marietta Daily Journal (MDJ) have teamed up to give a local teacher, from Kindergarten to 12th grade, an iPad each week of the 2015-2016 school year. The first winner will be announced the week of October 1, 2015 and then consecutively each week through the end of May, 2016.
Parents and students can go to http://mdj.secondstreetapp.com/2015_apple_teacher/ to nominate a teacher. Entries can also be submitted by visiting the MDJ online @ www.mdjonline.com and clicking on the “Apple for Teachers”icon on the right rail. The Marietta Daily Journal staff will select a winner from the nominations each week and present the iPad to the winner. A photo of the weekly winner with their students will appear in the Marietta Daily Journal print and online editions.
The MDJ advises any CCSD staff who would like to participate, that they write a brief statement, 100 words or less, explaining why they think the person deserves to be one of The Marietta Daily Journal and Superior Plumbing’s “Apple for your Teacher” weekly winners.
Questions can be directed to the MDJ in care of this email address:[email protected] .
