Forsyth County-based Qwizzy’s World (QW) has launched a fun contest for Forsyth County teachers, just in time for the holiday season.  QW is giving away a 10-12 pound turkey, courtesy of Rick Tanner’s Grille & Bar in Cumming, to the teachers whose lucky tickets are drawn during the QW Contest for Teachers, which runs now till midnight, November 7, 2009.

To qualify, teachers must be employed by a school participating in the QW School campaign and must sign up with QW at www.QWConnection.com.  One teacher per school will be notified as the winner on Monday, November 9, and will get to ‘take home the turkey,’ which will be personally delivered the week of November 16, just in time for Thanksgiving break. 

Teachers who sign up between October 25 and November 6, will have one ticket entered into the drawing.  Those creating ten or more quizzes on either their personal account or classroom account by November 6 will have two additional tickets entered in the drawing. 

As a bonus, QW is throwing in a classroom party for the teacher who enrolls the most students in QW for the 30-day free trial by midnight, November 7.  Many teachers already have their students studying with QW at home -- already a bonus for teachers, students and parents.  The teacher with the most students enrolled wins a classroom party at the time and date of his/her choosing.
