Buy a Round for Memphis Teachers—And Support Them All Year
This week, we’re celebrating our incredible Memphis educators at the Fall Teacher Appreciation Event!
On Wednesday, October 1, Teach901 is hosting teachers at Wiseacre Brewing Co. for a night of trivia, prizes, giveaways, and the anticipated premiere of Abbott Elementary Season 5. To make the evening extra special, the first 25 teachers through the door will receive a free drink, with discounts and perks running all night long. 🍻✨
But as much as we love celebrating teachers with appreciation events, teachers should be supported all year long.
WHY TEACHER SUPPORT IS SO IMPORTANT
“Buying a round” for teachers is a fun way to show gratitude in the moment—but what teachers really need is support throughout the year. Teachers are the backbone of our schools, and yet they often carry the weight of under-resourced classrooms, long hours, and the challenge of meeting every student’s needs. A free drink or a trivia prize can make them smile, but consistent support is what sustains them.
