Chiptole is doing all they can to thank the wonderful teachers of the Rockford area.

Teacher Appreciation day is May 9, but it appears Chipotle is getting a head start on the festivities.

According to Chipotle's website, "Teachers, faculty, and staff: bring in your school ID to any Chipotle in the U.S. on Tuesday May 2nd from 3pm-close and we’ll hook you up."

One little catch though, teachers or staff have to buy another menu item. Long story short, it's a BOGO deal at Chipotle, even then it's still a pretty great deal.
