Lunch with Class (Literally): 5 Reasons Why HoneyBaked Ham Catering is Perfect for Teachers

"Is it lunchtime yet? I’m starving!"
Yes, this phrase is all too familiar isn't it? It's not only something we hear our friends ask, teachers wonder the same thing too!

With classes back in full swing, it's quite apparent that our educators are most loyal to the school as well as our students... so much so that teachers oftentimes forget about their own appetites! 

For the most part, faculty members unfortunately can't drive off somewhere to take a lunch break, which is why gourmet catering from HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville that's delivered right to your break room can help maintain that high-spirited morale during the most hectic time of day (or even any day of the week, while classes are in session as usual). 

Here are 5 reasons why teachers should take advantage of
HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville catering for lunch:

1. Everyone knows lunches from our school cafeterias can sometimes be as palatable as eating hospital food. The meal options can be bland in flavor, funny in smell and just plain terrible in taste. The fiyou deserve a wonderful lunch to go with the hard work you are putting in.

2. In most cases, leaving school grounds for lunch is prohibited for teachers.
As administrators of our young scholars, most teachers have the responsibility of being present where students are at all times, which means they can’t just leave for a lunch break (unlike those of us who work from a typical corporate office setting). The good news is HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville will deliver within a 15-mile radius for FREE (for orders of $100 or more). Isn’t that wonderful?!

3. A teacher's job doesn't just stop when classes are dismissed for the day.
Work can continue on till the wee hours of the evening at home (grading test papers, revising curriculums) and just didn’t have that time to prepare a brown bagger lunch for the following day. Good to know that HoneyBaked Ham is right around the corner to take care of that part.

4. Even teachers need (and deserve) a "refresher course," just in a different kind of way.
Not only does HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville have a myriad of delicious, low-calorie lunch portions available, ALL Douglasville educators receive a FREE gallon of refreshing iced tea (your choice of Southern-style sweet or unsweetened) with each of catered lunch order.Now that's what we call a refresher course, especially when it comes to our beloved professors!

5. Catered lunch delivery rates well on our local instructors' "rapport cards."
Heading back to the classroom means many new faces for our school staff, including the newest colleagues. A catered lunch from HoneyBaked Ham Douglasville provides the perfect opportunity to bring all these new faces together to build camaraderie among the faculty, especially since everyone will be dropping by the teacher’s lounge for their much-needed mid-day breaks anyway!

Everyone knows how wonderful and fulfilling a HoneyBaked Ham can be during the holidays... but it can also be enjoyed throughout the school year by teachers, parents and students alike.
