During the week of May 8-12, our school administration is doing a Teacher Appreciation Week game show with prizes and treats each day. If you would like to donate grab bag prizes examples are hats that light up or necklaces(the sillier the better), or even candy bars. Basically anything you can buy at the dollar store. We are also asking for gift cards in any amount and one grand prize for the winner of the survivor game. Don't let this take away from anything you might normally do for your individual teachers, they would love a personalized note as well. Thank you for helping us show our teachers how much we appreciate them!
