Teacher and Staff Appreciation is this week May 2-6
We want to thank our French Creek Teachers and Staff this week by taking them on a Trip Around the World. It wouldn't have been possible without all the help and support from our Amazing French Creek Parents and Students. Here is the passport of fun our teachers and staff will experience each day.
Parents, be on the lookout for an email filled with fun activities from your classroom's homeroom parent. They have planned exciting things each day to thank your child's teacher for their hard work.
Student Activity for Teacher and Staff Appreciation
We want our students to let their teachers and staff know why they mean the WORLD to us! So please print out this template for your student to use, or they can create a postcard on their own.
Feel free to turn in as many as your student would like! We are hoping to receive postcards for every staff member! Home Room Teachers, Assistants, Cafeteria Staff, Maintenance and Custodians, Special Area Teachers, School Admin and Nurse, Counselors, Bus Drivers, and any other staff member that your child would like to show their appreciation to.
We will have the Candy Monster available in the office to collect them this month. Please have your postcards turned in by May 2, 2022.
Family Fun Toy Bingo!
Yearbook 2021/2022
Did you forget to order a yearbook? This is your FINAL chance! We have a limited number of extra copies!
Cost of the yearbook is $22 plus fees for a total of $25.
PLEASE NOTE: Sixth graders DO NOT need to order a yearbook. The PTA is providing yearbooks to all 6th graders, free of charge.
