Teacher Appreciation Week - From PTO
This year for teacher appreciation week, PTO will be doing something a little different this year. We are asking for parent donations to help; we want to send our amazing teachers and TA's gift cards this year. This last month of teaching has been a new challenge for them and we would love to show them some love for stepping into this new role they have all taken on.
Please consider donating to our PTO paypal account so we can spoil and show these very deserving teachers some love.
We are also asking that students bring a little cheer to their teachers each day:
Monday, May 4: Kids read/write a letter to their teacher ( they can record it on seesaw, for those that use it)
Tuesday, May 5: Draw a flower or design for your teacher
Wednesday, May 6: Send a virtual hug
Thursday, May 7: Tell your teacher a joke
Friday, May 8: Have everything turned in on time.
