Thank a Teacher started in 2016 with one goal: to thank as many K-12 public school teachers in Virginia as possible during National Teacher Appreciation Week in May. With thank-you notes designed by students and distributed by the Virginia Lottery, Virginia’s residents can thank their favorite public school teachers and help them win a cash prize and supplies for their schools from Supply Room.
We’re currently looking for three students to have their artwork featured on the thousands of thank-you notes distributed across the state. The contest is open to K-12 students enrolled in one of Virginia’s public schools, and one top-prize winner will be selected from each level: elementary school, middle school and high school. The three winners will not only get to see their artwork featured on the 2025 thank-you notes, but they’ll also receive a $200 gift card and win $2,000 for their school’s art department.
We’re asking all our partners to help us get the word out! If you’re interested in helping, attached are some social media posts that you can share on your social networks, as well as some fun images to go along with them. We’ve also included a flyer that you could distribute to your email lists or post on your website.
Submissions will be accepted until February 3, 2025. For more information about the Thank a Teacher Art Contest including official rules, eligibility and entry requirements, visit www.ThankaTeacherVA.com.
