Appreciation . . .



Did you know it was "Teacher Appreciation Week" this week?  It runs from May 8th through the 11th.  As a teacher, I can tell you we love receiving notes and hearing from parents. This week I was fortunate to receive a couple nice notes from parents.

Our PTO put on a lovely and delicious luncheon for us last Friday!  Today our principal gave us a beautiful plant and useful gifts - all unexpected, and all appreciated!

If you appreciate a teacher, your former, or your childs, please take a moment to acknowledge him/her by writing a note to him/her - you won't believe how much she'll appreciate it.

IDIOTS (Teacher appreciation jokes) 
"If there are any idiots in the room, will they please stand up" said the sarcastic teacher. After a long silence, one freshman rose to his feet. "Now then mister, why do you consider yourself an idiot?" enquired the teacher with a sneer. "Well, actually I don't," said the student, "but I hate to see you standing up there all by yourself."
