Hall-Kent teachers hold school supplies they received from Wal-Mart at a recent assembly.
Wal-Mart recently surprised 20 teachers from Hall-Kent Elementary School with $50 reward cards to purchase classroom supplies.
Homewood Wal-Mart Representative David Roberts addressed the staff and students during a school-wide program and asked students to come up and draw teachers’ names out of a hat. Those 20 teachers received gift cards and a gift basket from Wal-Mart to use in their classroom.
The Teacher Rewards program is an extension of Wal-Mart’s ongoing support of local education initiatives that help students better prepare for their future. In 2013, Wal-Mart and its Foundation donated more than $44 million to fund education programs across the country.
