Akron teachers and staff have been spoiled this past week
We would like to thank Washington County Cattlewomen for the tasty treats they left for us in the office! Also, big thanks to the anonymous Latte Da donor that bought the staff drinks all week! Mrs. Anderson and Mr. Randel, thank you for providing the refreshing beverages and snacks for us! Akron School Board Members thank you for the recognition and appreciation gifts. We love our jobs and it is wonderful to feel appreciated…. THANK YOU ALL!
