CLEVELAND (May 14, 2024) – DTLR, one of the country’s most successful lifestyle retailers with more than 250 stores in 21 states, teamed up with Crocs to launch the inaugural Teachers Rock Campaign — aimed to celebrate and reward educators in several major cities during Teacher Appreciation Week.

In Cleveland, teachers from Garfield Heights, John Adams, and W.A.V.E were chosen based on their unwavering dedication to shaping the lives of students. DTLR hand-selected these educators based on their active involvement in community and school events and their contributions to the development of their students and surprised during the school day with a custom swag bag, featuring a custom lunch bag, shoes, shirt and stress relief items.

“The Teachers Rock campaign was born to shine a light on the dedication of educators and their vital roles in their local communities,” said Tremayne Lipscomb Sr., Director of Community Outreach at DTLR. “We chose to focus on teachers because they understand the demanding nature of the profession, as they can spend long hours on their feet everyday to educate and inspire students. We’re honored to partner with Crocs on this campaign and give back to local heroes who give so much to their communities.”
