thank a staff member
February 11, 2024
Each year we take a moment to pause and think about the staff at Thomas we are grateful for by writing a short statement of gratitude. Historically, this has been done by staff and students within the building but this year we wanted to extend an invitation to you!
If there is a staff member at Thomas who has made a difference for your child or family, please take a moment to finish the prompt below, "We are lucky...", and let them know how grateful you are. You can recognize one staff member or complete the form several times to recognize more!
Submissions are welcome through Thursday, March 21st. All notes of thanks will be delivered to staff next Friday, March 22nd. Thank you for your support!
