🌴 Final Day: Tropical Getaway + Pack Your Bags 🧳
We wrapped up Teacher Appreciation Week with a tropical getaway in the morning and “Pack Your Bags” for the rest of the day!
We did have to postpone our Tropical Getaway earlier in the week due to the snow day on Wednesday, so it was the perfect way to kick off our final celebration! ❄️➡️🌺

🏝️Our PPO crew started the day off right by serving up delicious smoothies for breakfast to all our teachers and staff, thanks to sponsorship from Crossview Church! 🍓🍍

🎉Then came our GRAND FINALE! Our amazing volunteers transformed the space into a “Pack Your Bags” experience filled with travel essentials, a fun craft, and lots of treats to take home. Huge thanks to our incredible Orchard Hill families and PPO for helping clear our Amazon wishlist and making it all possible! ✈️💛
🌟Special thanks to Olive & June and DrinkLMNT for their generous donations and support ✨

🌟And we couldn’t end the week just yet… one final surprise courtesy of the PPO, Wood Orthodontics, and Booster! Dinner kits so our first-class passengers could head home, relax, and not worry about cooking! 🍽️✨

💙What an unforgettable week celebrating the incredible teachers who pour so much into our students every day. Thank you to everyone who helped make it so special! 💛

🌮 Teacher Appreciation Week — Day 5: Mexican Fiesta 🎉

🚗 Teacher Appreciation Week — Day 4: Travel Around the USA Road Trip 🇺🇸

☀️ Teacher Appreciation Week — Day 2: Chalk the Walk 🌈
Nothing says “we love our teachers and staff” like sidewalks covered in colorful chalk, sweet messages, doodles, and LOTS of appreciation! 💛

On Monday, our teachers got to start their week walking through the happiest little path of encouragement and love. ✨
Thankfully they got to read all your sweet messages before the Tuesday rain came through and washed it all away! ☔️😂
Thank you to everyone who came out to help us chalk the walk and make our staff feel extra special today! ✏️✨
