Show Appreciation Without Spending

posted 4/24/23 -- Teacher Appreciation Week is celebrated during the first full week of May, which makes it May 8 to May 12 this year.

While you are not obligated to participate in any way, it is a wonderful time to let your child’s teacher know how grateful you are for all he or she does. To help you out, we compiled a list of no cost ways to show your appreciation.

1. Work with your child to write a letter about what he or she likes about the teacher. Many templates are available online so you can just fill in the blanks.
2. Have your child draw a special picture of their teacher and themselves. Then have your child say what they like best about their teacher and write it down.
3. Create a video to send to your teacher through ClassTag. Let your child talk about his or her favorite memories from this school year.
4. Send a thank you note to school with your child, or even send a fun e-card to their e-mail.
5. A heartfelt hug from the child and thank you, always brings joy and warms the heart!

Over the past couple years through COVID, teachers had to adjust, adapt, brainstorm, think and teach differently. Teaching is not an easy profession and our teachers have done an incredible job this year.

We hope you will take a moment to acknowledge them and the tremendous impact they have on your child’s early learning experience.
