National Teacher Appreciation Day is May 6: Here are deals for educators in North Texas
Tuesday, May 6 is Teacher Appreciation Day and schools across North Texas are using the week to celebrate educators any way they can. It's part of Teacher Appreciation Week, which is May 5-9.
From private to public school, in the classroom or out, schools can't operate without a devoted faculty and staff.
From the gym to the classroom, lunchroom, field house, auditorium, bandroom, even the custodians and everywhere in between, schools run on the dreams of students with the help of teachers who work beyond an eight-hour day.
Educators are advocates, listeners, encouragers and a voice of reason.
Kennedale ISD superintendent Dr. Chad Gee told CBS News Texas that there's no doubt that faculty and staff the heart of the district.
"I think we have the greatest teachers of all the districts in the [Dallas-Fort Worth] Metroplex," Gee said. "We are the smallest, I think if you looked at it and researched, we'd probably be the smallest in Dallas County too. So, between [Dallas and Fort Worth], we are the smallest school district. Our teachers wear many hats, our staff wear many hats and we are so very grateful for all they do for our students."

Chipotle is Giving Away Free Burritos for An Entire Year—Here's How to Win
Chipotle is Giving Away Free Burritos for An Entire Year—Here's How to Win originally appeared on Parade. If I'm being honest, I've been called extra quite a few times in my lifetime. I love a good dramatic sting, and I will forever live for an over-the-top, suspenseful episode of Paradise or The White Lotus. I'm a murder mystery fanatic, and if there's a new true crime documentary out about anything, you better believe I'm watching it. Sure, I could be more milquetoast and leave my confetti at the door, but cocktails are better with glitter bombs and gumbo is better extra spicy. 😋😋🍳🍔 I can't help that I was born with eyes bigger than my stomach and a taste to chase dreams larger than the universe. Everyone else should just catch up. Of course, there is one restaurant chain that knows a thing or two about being a little extra, and this summer they're giving away more than you can imagine (and hopefully silencing those portion size allegations in the process.) That's right, my 'couldn't care less if guac is extra', friends. Chipotle is kicking off an entire Summer of Extras, a new three-month program that rewards Rewards members with free burritos from June 1 to August this Sunday, rewards members who reach predetermined milestones can rack up additional points and score a shot at winning the ultimate prize—a coveted (and only slightly extra) limited-edition stainless steel Chipotle card good for free burritos for an entire year. And if that's not enough, Chipotle is giving away a whopping 10,000 free burritos every week. If you choose to participate, it's worth noting that milestones will reset each month, giving guests more chances to earn all summer long. Weekly entry periods begin each Sunday at 12 AM Pacific Time and end every Saturday at 11:59 PM Pacific Time. In totality, you can earn up to 60 entries into the sweepstakes each week, as well as over 650 rewards points if you can commit to eating Chipotle four times a week. If you haven't already signed up for Chipotle Rewards, you can also snag a free guac after your first order, but we're sure you're already a part of the club. Chipotle might be more extra than I am.

Michigan State basketball star Jase Richardson partners with Chipotle
Michigan State basketball star Jase Richardson partners with Chipotle Former Michigan State basketball star Jase Richardson has partnered with a big-time restaurant chain. Richardson posted on Tuesday that he has "Ready for the next step with" Chipotle. The post included "#ChipotlePartner" which would suggest Richardson has signed some type of advertising or marketing deal with the well-known and popular burritos, tacos and bowls chain restaurant. Check out the post from Richardson below: Richardson is moving on to the NBA after a stellar true freshman season at Michigan State this past year. He averaged over 12.1 points per game and shot above 40% from three-point range, which has landed him as a fringe lottery pick in the NBA Draft later this month. Richardson was a fan favorite during his lone season at Michigan State, and I'm sure this deal will only help boost that for those who also enjoy Chipotle. If anything, it'll at least put a little extra dough in Richardson's pockets and I'm sure result in some free burritos as well.
