Teacher Appreciation Week is upon us and this week we celebrate the teachers who illuminate the world to our kids! Take time this week to acknowledge your appreciation for all they do. Help your child create a handwritten note or card, bring your teachers a flower or a hand made gift or take time to stop by and offer your teachers an encouraging word. Your teachers will appreciate your and your child's efforts and will know that you care!
Share your photos of your child's creations and we'll be sure everyone sees. The PTA will be posting photos of the ways we've pampered teachers all week.
