To honor and give back to local schoolteachers who have transitioned in-classroom teaching to online teaching over the past two months, The Shannon Rose Irish Pub will hold a Teacher Appreciation Week photo contest to recognize top schoolteachers in Bergen and Passaic counties* during Teacher Appreciation Week, as nominated by their students’ parents and other teachers beginning Monday, May 4.

Submissions will be accepted through Thursday, May 7. The top two teachers from each county with the most submissions and/or those with the best rationale for their nominations will move on to the voting round. The Shannon Rose Irish Pub will post on the Instagram page on Friday, May 8, asking for comments to determine the winner of each county. Winners will be announced Monday, May 11.

To nominate a teacher, the rules and guidelines are as follows:

1. The nominating parent/teacher’s account must follow The Shannon Rose Irish Pub on Instagram**
2. The nominating parent/teacher must submit a photo of the teacher, along with two sentences explaining why he/she deserves to be nominated and should be recognized during Teacher Appreciation Week.
3. The top two submissions from each county will be shared to The Shannon Rose Irish Pub Instagram page on Friday, May 8.
4. The teachers (one from each county) who receive the most comments on The Shannon Rose Irish Pub Instagram post will each win a Family Meal and Cocktail Kit from The Shannon Rose Irish Pub location of their choice.
