Huntsville Teachers #Post Their Way to #Prizes

During our Back to School conference, all attendees were invited to a contest: tweet or post on Google+ using the hashtag #HISDBTS.  Last week, our team surprised these winning teachers with prizes donated by some of Huntsville's best businesses.

Thank you teachers and instructional assistants for playing, and thank you Walker County Hardware (Ace Hardware), Fiesta Taqueria, Los Pericos, Mr. Hamburger and Olive Garden for donating.  We couldn't have had the contest without you. :-)  The winners of the inaugural Huntsville Independent School District Back to School Conference Social Media contest are, from:
