AMARILLO, Texas — The United Family and Mrs Baird’s Bread® announced the February winners of the eleventh annual Teachers On The Rise program. Since the program launched at the beginning of the school year, nominations have poured in from students and families across the High Plains, explaining how their teacher(s) go above and beyond the call of duty and why they deserve special recognition.

Congratulations to our February winners: Autumn Harston of Sanford-Fritch Elementary (SFISD), Heidi Parsons of Bonham Middle School (Amarillo ISD), and Kylie Howell of Canyon High School (Canyon ISD).

“We are thrilled for this round of winners,” said Abie Rampy, director of public relations for The United Family. “Teachers serve a vital purpose in our communities and deserve recognition. With just three more months left in the school year, we encourage students to nominate their favorite teachers every month!”

“We know there are many teachers in our classrooms who deserve recognition, and we look forward to receiving many more nominations this spring,” said Shane Sumrow, the director of Teachers On The Rise. “We only have three more months left in the school year to nominate teachers, so we encourage students and families to get their nominations soon.”

Winning teachers receive a $100 United Supermarkets gift card, a $100 American Express gift card from Tyler’s Barbecue in Amarillo, a $100 Amazon gift card from Horse Creek Boutique in Spearman for classroom supplies, and a gift basket full of Mrs Baird’s goodies.
