TDS Telecom to award ‘Most Valuable Educator’ with Green Bay Packers prize package

TDS Telecommunications LLC (TDS®) is launching an initiative to honor an outstanding Wisconsin educator with a Green Bay Packers prize package that includes game tickets and a classroom visit to Lambeau Field.

TDS’ Most Valuable Educator award honors a person working in Wisconsin schools who is making a difference in the lives of students and their community. The winner will receive four tickets to the Dec. 17 Green Bay Packers game against Tampa Bay.

In addition, the winner will get the opportunity to take a group of students to Lambeau Field to tour the stadium and meet with a Packers alum.

“TDS proudly supports schools throughout our service area with a variety of sponsorships and donations. We’re excited to honor our first Most Valuable Educator and shine a spotlight on educators’ tireless work to help students achieve and make our communities a better place,” said Dawn Nowakowski, TDS Manager of Regional Field Marketing.

Nominees must reside in a TDS community in Wisconsin. A full list of the more than 150 Wisconsin communities TDS serves can be found at tdstelecom.com/local/wisconsin.html.

To nominate a teacher, aide, administrator, or other school staff member, visit tdstelecom.com/educator. Nominators can describe why the educator deserves the award, as well as what a Packers prize package would mean for them. The deadline to submit a nomination is Friday, Nov. 3.
