Firstmark Credit Union is proud to partner with Santikos Entertainment for the second year in a row to celebrate teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week. Each year, the credit union recognizes educators for their dedication and commitment to helping students succeed. Teacher Appreciation Week is celebrated the first full week in May each year, and this year, it is on May 2-6.
To show teachers how much they are appreciated, Firstmark will deliver movie tickets and complimentary popcorn and discounted bowling passes to the schools nearest a Firstmark financial center. Teachers will also have a chance to win one of five private screenings for a party of 25. To learn how to nominate a favorite teacher, please visit the contest details on Firstmark Credit Union’s Facebook page: @FirstmarkCU.
“We are so thankful to every single teacher for making a difference in a child’s life,” said Marisa Perez-Diaz, executive director of the Firstmark Foundation. “Despite another unpredictable year, these extraordinary teachers continue to meet every challenge with compassion, strength and creativity. We thank our friends at Santikos Entertainment for helping us honor and celebrate these ‘reel stars’ who go above and beyond to care for all our students.”

About Firstmark Credit Union
Firstmark Credit Union has been helping people for 90 years. The Firstmark story began in 1932 at Fox Tech High School where ten teachers signed a charter to form the San Antonio Teachers Credit Union. Firstmark has grown the ten teachers’ original $475 investment to almost 100,000 members and over $1 billion in assets. Firstmark is a not-for-profit, member-owned financial institution focused on helping members live out the highest vision of themselves.
