Thank A Teacher Program -- March/April 2013
Outstanding teachers at UNT do make a difference for students. They make learning challenging and fun; they are available when needed; and they weather many storms with students to foster bright futures. When teachers have made this kind of a difference, many students wish for a way to say "Thanks".
Please contact Nancy Fire at nancy.fire@unt.edu with any questions about the Thank a Teacher program.
