Teacher Appreciation Week
It was a special week as we celebrated our fantastic teachers and staff. A simple thank you or a hug to show appreciation would have been enough, but our students and parents went above and beyond to show their love for our staff! A special thank you to the PTA hospitality team, Mrs. Nguyen and Mrs. Maxwell for making this week memorable and so much fun for us! To all our teachers, WE LOVE and APPRECIATE YOU!
