Teacher Appreciation Week

There are no adequate words to express how valued, loved, and appreciated you are!  I never dreamed at the beginning of this challenging year we would be at this point.  You have all demonstrated flexibility beyond all expectation, and have done this with such grace.  You have all covered for each other at some point during the year.  You have poured your heart and soul into the social, emotional, and academic growth and development of our precious students!  I know everyone is so tired as we move into the month of May.  What I do know is that challenges lead to growth, and we have grown so much this year....and I know we are even better for it!  I feel so privileged to work with each and every one of you!  Thank you for being the best!

Our PTO has something planned each day this week for our teachers:

Monday - Goody bags for teachers

Tuesday - Breakfast biscuits from Great Harvest for all faculty (and staff).

Wednesday - Baby Bites from Pasty Arts for all faculty (and staff).  

Thursday - Gifts for teachers

Thank you so much for making me feel special on National Principal's Day.  I absolutely loved all the sweet cards and messages I received from your students!
