🌟 Teacher Appreciation Week is Coming! 🌟

Let’s show our amazing Willow Brook teachers just how much they mean to us! 🐻

We’ve put together a “Teacher Favorite Things” list (see attached!) to help you pick out something special your child’s teacher will truly love. 🎁

✨ Make it fun & interactive!
Each day, students can surprise their teacher with a small treat based on their favorites:

💛 Monday: Favorite drink
💛 Tuesday: NO SCHOOL
💛 Wednesday: Favorite color item
💛 Thursday: Favorite store gift card
💛 Friday: A handwritten note or drawing

Every little gesture means so much and helps our teachers feel appreciated all week long! 🥰

Feel free to participate in whatever way works best for your family—no pressure, just kindness!

Let’s make this week extra special for the ones who do so much for our kids every day! 🍎✨
