Cinergy Entertainment Celebrates its Cinergy Heroes Contest Winners

DALLAS, May 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Cinergy Entertainment presented the winning teachers of the Cinergy Heroes contest with their grand prize.

Cinergy created a call to action last month asking parents, students and staff to nominate a teacher that is a hero in their lives. After over 40 submissions, 9 finalists were chosen. Cinergy received well over 213,000 votes during Teacher Appreciation Week and the community selected three final winners: Michelle Ortiz with Copperas Cove ISD, Ray Mata with Odessa High School, and Christine Denlinger with St. Ann's School in Midland, Tx.

"Cinergy is about synergizing people with the magic of movies and amusements. Our community teachers synergize their students every day with the magic of education. We wanted to recognize these educators for all of their hard work in and out of the classroom in a big way, with a fun and entertaining contest," said Traci Hoey, Director of Marketing, Sales and Special Events, "These educators are our heroes and are making a difference in the lives of so many students. That's something to celebrate."

The final winners were awarded with a Cinergy season pass, a $200 gift card to Target and a Cinergy gift bag. The nominating classes were awarded with Cinergy game cards and a special movie offer.

Toni Reed, a parent from Mrs. Ortiz's class glowed about the efforts of Mrs. Ortiz stating, "Mrs. Ortiz goes above and beyond for the kids. She instills a love of reading in them and has such a gentle way of teaching. As a parent she makes me step back and evaluate what's important to correct and what to celebrate as an accomplishment."

Cinergy Heroes was such a success and well received by schools, teachers, and community partners alike; the program will continue next year to honor the educators who work hard to shape the minds of our youth.
