Thank you to everyone who helped make Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week come together... And mostly... thanks to the Teachers & Staff who do what they do each and every week.

Hattie B’s donated lunch and the teachers visited “Baggage Claim” on the last day of their travel week. Thank you to Hattie B’s for lunch on Friday and to HERO for coffee and Donuts on Monday.

A special thanks to our Teacher Appreciation Team, Theresa Yarber & Sarah Grace, who kept all the flights on time. :)
