Cardona’s Market salutes Capital Region educators with a signature sandwich for Teacher Appreciation Week which will be celebrated this year during the first full week of May. The Teacher’s P.E.T. – a Cardona’s specialty sub featuring prosciutto, eggplant and tomato on a classic Italian roll with stracciatella cheese, garlic confit, olive oil and pepper relish – takes a seat at the head of the class Monday, May 5 through Friday, May 9.
Cardona’s guests are invited to nominate a favorite local school or teacher for a chance to win a ‘Teacher’s Lounge Hot Lunch Box’ package, feeding up to 20 members of the hard-working faculty in each Cardona’s Market community during Teacher Appreciation Week. Nominations can be submitted at each of Cardona’s three market locations. The drawing will take place on May 9 and the winning schools will receive sandwich platters for their faculty the following week.
“Cardona’s is proud to continue our tradition of thanking the incredible educators here in the Capital Region in our own delicious fashion,” said Cardona’s Co-Owner and Executive Chef Robert Cardona, Jr. “We’re happy to give back during Teacher Appreciation Week to those who give so much to our kids throughout the year. Anyone who visits our markets during Teacher Appreciation Week to enjoy this sandwich is invited to nominate their favorite school’s teachers for a chance to win a Cardona’s lunch on us!”
Teacher Appreciation Week was founded by the National Education Association as an annual tribute to teachers. The weeklong celebration is an opportunity to support and advocate for educators, shining a spotlight on exceptional teachers and raising funds to improve the quality of public schools across the country.
In addition to Teacher Appreciation Week offerings, Cardona’s is featuring specially-priced graduation party packages available for pre-order. Visit Catering.CardonasMarket.com to reserve your meal.
