Teachers traditionally have been given apples, but this week, educators are getting free breakfast from McDonald’s
The fast-food chain calls them Thank You Meals—a classic Happy Meal box filled with an entrée breakfast sandwich, hash browns, and a beverage. Sandwich options are an Egg McMuffin; a Bacon, Egg and Cheese Biscuit; or a Sausage Biscuit, and the beverage may be medium McCafé hot or iced coffee or a medium soft drink.
The offer is for teachers, administrators, and school staff who present a work ID during breakfast hours (5 a.m. – 11 a.m., except on Friday, when it’s until 11:30 a.m.). The offer begins today and goes through Friday at participating McDonald’s restaurants. There’s a one-per-customer-per-day policy.
This is not part of a national celebration. For example, American Education Week is the week before Thanksgiving and Teacher Appreciation Week is held every May.
Recognize your brand’s excellence by applying to this year’s Brands That Matter Awards before the early-rate deadline, May 3.
