Dollar General: Thursday #gno Twitter Party

by Mom It Forward on September 11th, 2013 | 21 Comments »

It’s September, and school is back in session. Days are filled with reading books, learning about our country’s history, and doing homework. We all know that a great education provides a sturdy foundation for all aspects of a person’s life. That’s why we are the biggest cheerleaders for our kids and our teachers!

Dollar General is cheering about the importance of education by honoring our nation’s schools and teachers during the month of September. Teachers are often the unsung heroes of daily life but their effect on a child’s development is unparalleled. They provide support and praise, helping to build a more confident child with a little extra pep!

One particular Everyday Hero we are cheering on tonight is Kimberley Shearer, an English teacher at Boone Country High School in Florence, Kentucky. Kimberly pushes her students to master 21^st century literacy skills by teaching how to evaluate information, collaborate, master technology and become life-long readers.
