Teachers selected can choose to use the money for anything (personal or professional use), but Comic-Con is really important to Roncoroni, she told us and $25k would help to make the 10th anniversary show spectacular.
Comic-Con at Phillipsburg, of course! Last year, with the help of local businesses, the students hosted over 80 comic creators in our cafeteria, giving out free food, comics, and art supplies to 650 attendees. TAPinto was present for the second year since operation, but we have been attending each year as an attendee.
The club partners with the local domestic violence agency and food bank – “they dispense resources and we help them raise money. If I won, I'd deposit the check in our club account so we could fly in students' favorite comic creators and improve representation for our 10th comic con.”
How to Vote
People can vote for free every 24 hours, and votes are cumulative until the finals. Once the finals begin, votes reset. The competition isn't over until the end of May, which is happening soon. “If I can get people to vote once a day, every day from now until May, we have a shot.”

4) "Share with friends and explain that by voting every 24 hours allows us to compete with famous teachers and wealthier school districts. There are 672 groups. While I'm first in my group, I'm not sure how competitive the other groups are, and I will eventually be facing off against the other teachers" says Roncoroni.
There were eight rounds in the contest, and only two left, which makes this like a spring sport, so get your voting ready, set, go! You may also get daily reminders from us to get online and vote!
