If you’re like us, you had a teacher in school that made a positive impact on your life, a teacher that you’ve never forgotten.
This past year has been challenging for everyone, and teachers have had to work especially hard to keep kids engaged and on track during virtual learning, ever-changing circumstances, and the stressors of the pandemic.
The Lingo team wanted to do something to highlight the efforts of teachers working tirelessly to ensure students are taken care of during these challenging times.
We’re excited to announce that we’ve partnered with Augusta County Public Schools to reward an outstanding elementary, middle, and high school staff member who has exhibited superior dedication and unique determination in fulfilling their job responsibilities.
Each winner will receive a $100 Zynodoa/Blu Point Seafood gift certificate, two great local restaurants in downtown Staunton!
