“Taking the Stage for Teachers!” Join us on Wednesday, September 30 from 6-9pm at Soprano’s, 2901 N. Sheffield, from 6-9pm.

What are you willing to do for education? Teachers are willing to put their money where our children’s minds are. They spend an average of $1200 of their own money on classroom supplies each year? Together, that’s $4 billion annually!  I know—$4 billion!!! For most, they’re just trying to help kids get the basics! That’s why Office Max teamed up with Adopt-A-Classroom to create “A Day Made Better“—a national cause event founded to erase teacher-funded classrooms.

Now, it’s our turn. We’re “Taking the Stage for Teachers!” Join us on Wednesday, September 30 from 6-9pm at Soprano’s, 2901 N. Sheffield, for a night of food, fun, and most importantly teacher appreciation. Oh, and did I mention the Karaoke? Yes, it’s time for you put yourself out there just like teachers do everyday for your kids.
