Normally, this blog about cars, trucks and SUVs, but today, I want to take a moment to express my appreciation for teachers. If it were not for life’s great teachers, our communities, our country, our world would not be what it is today.
Teachers help mold and shape our children and our future. They often give more time than they are are paid for, provide supplies on their own dime and share their intelligence, wisdom and patience day after day.
One special way the Reed family recognized teachers this year was to award a new 2013 Ford Escape to Humble Humble Independent School District’s teacher of the year, Joanna Grigsby. Randall Reed’s Planet Ford in Humble, Texas on Hwy. 59; Chuck Kramer, GM/Managing Partner; and our family could not have been more thrilled to have been part of recognizing both the teacher of the year and all of Humble ISD’s nominees.
Each teacher of the year nominee also received a gift certificate for $1,000 to cover their down payment on a new Ford car, truck or SUV. In addition, each nominee was offered a free maintenance package for free from Ford. Teachers do so much for our kids. This is one small way we can express our gratitude.
All of our dealerships, from Oklahoma City to Dallas and Garland to Houston, Spring and Humble, Texas, believe in partnering with schools in our communities to help support both our kids and our teachers.
We hope everyone will take a moment to thank a teacher this week for all they do for us, our kids and community every single day.
