Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week April 13-17

Teacher Appreciation Week is HERE!

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We’re excited to celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week from April 13–17! This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to show gratitude for the hard work, care, and dedication our teachers give every day.

The theme this year is: 

🍓🍓How 'Berry' Sweet it is to be taught by YOU!🍓🍓

Each day of the week will have a suggested small gift idea. Some of these ideas are completely free (like a handwritten note or drawing), while others are optional small tokens of appreciation.

Please note:

• Participation is completely optional.

• Your child is not required to bring anything at all.

• Students are welcome to participate as much or as little as they’d like.

Our goal is simply to spread kindness and appreciation in ways that feel comfortable for every family.

Here is more information about each day: 

Monday: Bring your teacher their favorite treat
This can be as small or as large as you like! Anything listed as a favorite drink, snack, place to eat, or place to shop can count as a treat :)  

If you need the favorite lists - please see them on the other post we have on our blogspot.

Tuesday: Wear your teacher's favorite color
Favorite colors are listed on the favorites list. Please let your child know that if they don't have an article of clothing or accessory in that color, it is just fine to not wear that specific color.  Many students either forget or just find a creative way to show their teacher that they are thinking about them on a day like this.

Wednesday: Favorite memory with your teacher

Students will have a chance at school to write down a favorite memory of their teacher - no need for you to do anything specific to prepare for this day.

Thursday: Stock the Classroom 
Teachers always appreciate donations of: tissues, Clorox wipes, highlighters, dry erase markers, sharpies (thick and thin), zip lock bags (any and every size), and classroom snacks! 

Friday: Bring your teacher a thank you card
Teaching truly is a labor of love and getting a card from a students can really impact a teacher's life and boost their moral.  Any note, regardless of its simplicity or eloquence, will be treasured!
