Teacher Appreciation Week is May 2nd-6th

Every year, the parents, students and PTO do something for the teachers at Edlin. Last year we did lunch from Panera. This year we thought we could do something outside, so we are going to have a grill set up on Wednesday the 4th, which is actual Teacher Appreciation Day.

PTO Event on Wednesday
Please let us know if you can volunteer anytime between 11am and 130pm. We will have hamburgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs and more.

Class or Student Ideas
If you are interested in doing something as a class or individually  for the teachers, here are some ideas:

• Surprise your teacher with a gift that you know they will like, a gift card for dinner, or Barnes and Noble, for example
• Have your class/child create a card just for the teacher to say thanks
• Create an everlasting bouquet of paper crafted flowers (see site here, origami flowers here, or even duct tape flowers!)
  
• Bring in breakfast one morning
• Decorate the classroom for the teacher on break
• Make cookies for the week (recommend no cupcakes, as they are cupcaked out)
• Have the class sign a mat for a picture frame and give her a photo of the class with the decorated frame

As long as you choose something from the heart that is meaningful, it will be great.

Support all Teachers at the School
Reach out to Prema Nelli if you want to help with a lunch for the teachers at the school, or breakfast, coffee/tea and goodies. She is coordinating something from the parents. Email her at premanelli@verizon.net.

Please share your ideas and reach out to parents in your class.

Sincerely,
Edlin PTO
