The polls are closed in The Gazette's My Favorite teacher contest.
We are now tabulating tens of thousands of votes cast by the community and will announce the winners right here, and in a special supplement in The Gazette newspapers, on December 17.
One teacher in each town from each school level will win, and the three teachers who received the most overall votes will win the grand prizes - $500 for themselves and $500 for their school, courtesy of MCT Federal Credit Union.
