Unsung Heroes Teacher Appreciation Breakfast a HUGE Success!

The Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD Educational Foundation held its "Unsung Heroes Teacher Appreciation Breakfast" on November 9, 2011 at the Intercontinental Hotel in Addison, with over 200 in attendance. This wonderful event helps raise money for scholarships and grants for teachers and students of the C-FB ISD. Ten teachers from the C-FB ISD were nominated by their principals for exceptional work for going above and beyond classroom duties to enrich the lives of their students. Awarded the "Unsung Hero Teachers of the year" were Jo Ann Jennings and Steve Sonksen from Kent Elementary. These two teachers spent their own money and sent food home weekly to a family who had both parents unemployed, as well as reaching out to several families who needed emotional support. Several families are now thriving because of their efforts.

Other distinguished attendees at the breakfast were keynote speaker State Senator John Corona, who was first elected to the Texas Legislature in 1990, who is now in his fifth term in the Texas Senate, representing District 16 in Dallas County; Owen DeWitt, C-FB ISD Educational Foundation Board Member; Dr. Bobby Burns, Superintendent C-FB ISD; Mayor Mathew Marchant of Carrollton; Mayor Todd Meier of Addison; Mayor Bill Glancy of Farmers Branch; Title sponsor, Eric Norrington with Ace Cash Express; Chris Wallace, President of Las Colinas Chamber; and Gerald Farris, Irving City council.
