STAFF APPRECIATION WEEK IS COMING!!
Help us celebrate our amazing staff! Staff Appreciation Week is coming (May 4-8) and we want to make it extra special for our incredible Cedar Island staff!
Here's how you can get involved with what our PTO has planned:
• Complete a "thank you" card: You’ll see two “thank you” cards come home with your student(s) this week. Please fill them out—one for your child’s homeroom teacher and one for another staff member who means a lot to your family — and return by Thursday, April 30. Share what makes them special, a favorite memory, or whatever is on your heart!
• Make a donation: We’re collecting donations of drinks (sparkling water and soda), handheld treats (cookies, brownies, etc.), or monetary donations to help cover the week’s events. Every little bit helps us make this possible!
o If you'd like to donate food or drink, please contact Ashley Funke ([email protected]) to coordinate.
o If you'd like to make a monetary donation, please send cash or check (made out to Cedar Island PTO) with your child in an envelope labeled "Staff appreciation week." This will be safely collected in your child's class along with the thank you cards.
• Volunteer: If you have the bandwidth to help set up/clean up on Monday, Wednesday or Friday the week of May 4, we would welcome the support! Please contact Ashley Funke ([email protected]) with your availability.
Our staff gives so much to our students and families every day. With your help, we can show them just how much they are loved.
Thank you for supporting our wonderful staff!
