Teacher Appreciation Week
Teacher Appreciation Week is Coming – Let’s Show Some Love to our LOWER SCHOOL staff!
Teacher Appreciation Week is just around the corner (May 5–9), and our amazing parent committee is already planning a week full of treats, meals, surprises, and heartfelt moments to celebrate our incredible teachers and staff!
We’d love your help in two key ways:
1. Donate Items: Check out our Sign-Up Genius to see how you can contribute. From snacks to supplies, every donation helps make the week extra special! Item drop-off will be April 28–May 2 (unless otherwise noted) – details are in the sign-up.
2. Notes of Appreciation: Encourage your scholars to write or draw notes for as many staff members as they would like! These personal messages mean so much. Please drop them in the Hot Air Express Balloon Drop located in the lower school foyer during Teacher Appreciation Week (May 5–9).
We’re excited to make this a week to remember for our hard-working, dedicated teachers – thank you in advance for your support!
