We know teachers make every school day a little brighter, so it’s time to brighten theirs with Trips for Teachers: Live More Floridays! This school year, we’re celebrating the Tri-State’s best teachers with an unforgettable getaway to St Pete Beach, Florida!
Nominate your favorite educator below for a chance to win a 3-night stay for two at The Luce, St Pete Beach. You’ll stay in stylish gulf-front accommodations just steps from the sand, where every day is a Floriday filled with sunshine, beach time, and spectacular Gulf Coast sunsets. Make a splash in the largest pool on St. Pete Beach and soak up the hotel’s vibrant, laid-back coastal vibes. Then enjoy brunch, dinner, happy hour, and coastal cocktails at Sundrop – The Luce’s energizing indoor-outdoor restaurant and bar.
Our winning teachers will also experience a Floriday filled with adventure at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay! With thrilling rides, seasonal events, and more than 200 animal species, there’s something for everyone.
But this isn’t just a vacation – it’s a chance for our teachers to discover their vacation state, trade ordinary days for new off-the-beaten-path adventures, and embrace the carefree mindset that only Florida can offer.
Each month, one teacher will be selected to join Amanda Orlando, and all the other winners for an incredible summer getaway to St. Pete Beach in June/July 2027 (exact travel dates to be determined).
Life is too short for ordinary days. Live More Floridays!
