Next week is teacher appreciation week! We want our teachers to know how much we appreciate all that they do for our students. When we think about teachers we aren't just thinking about our classroom teachers, we are also thinking about our PE, Music, Counselors, Behavior Specialist and our SPED teachers. They all do so much work behind the sense to be impactful, to make students feel valued and to make students feel safe.

Here are some idea's to say thank you to the teachers who impact your students lives on a daily bases:
Write or draw a picture
bring/pick flowers
Bring a gift card for coffee
