Nominations for the H-E-B Excellence in Education Awards are currently open to all public school educators in Texas, and we want teachers, counselors, principals, schools, boards and districts to know they can win cash prizes for their outstanding work. Texas early childhood education centers/schools are eligible as well.

Each year, H-E-B recognizes outstanding educators who go the extra mile to serve their students and their communities, and awards cash prizes to finalists, winners and their schools. Anyone can nominate an educator, and a nomination is not required to apply for an award. The program is statewide in Texas and eligibility is not dependent on proximity to H-E-B store locations!

Would you be open to sharing this with your members and on your social media channels? Included below is a link to a toolkit with social media graphics, as well as language you are welcome to use.

Nominations close on October 7, 2024. More information can be found at https://heblovesteachers.com/

Finn ready for water hose

Turn the sound DOWN: I can set the time by my ear infection-prone (and very vocal) dog wanting to play with the water hose 😆 It’s a nightly ritual and he never, EVER, lets me slide on it. So we have to put on a shower cap and do the hose-down.
