Although many celebrate teacher/staff appreciation this coming week, because of school conflicts, Ross is celebrating teacher/staff appreciation week May 12-16. The Ross PTA is coordinating a number of activities to celebrate our 36 remarkable teachers and staff, including:
- On Monday, May 12, the PTA will provide a catered breakfast for teachers and staff, and will organize a thank-you banner for students and parents to sign.
- On Tuesday, May 13, students will bring in a single flower each for their classroom teachers and for a few staff whom the PTA assigns to their class (more details coming on Tuesday).
- On Wednesday, May 14, Principal Searl will host a happy hour for teachers and staff, in part with PTA resources.
- On Thursday, May 15, teachers and staff will receive gift cards for neighborhood treats.
- On Friday, May 16, the PTA will provide a catered lunch for teachers and staff.
- Throughout the week, the PTA will offer teachers and staff reduced prices on Ross swag.
All of the above is made possible through your contributions to the PTA. Want to help out more during the week? Here's what you could do:
- Are you available to help organize the banner? Or do you have some time on Tuesday, May 13 (8-9am) to help coordinate the flower distribution? Contact ptapresident@rosselementary.org.
- Do you have other ideas for how we could help teachers and staff feel special? Contact ptapresident@rosselementary.org.
- You are also welcome to bring a small treat (Remember: No nuts, please!) or card to any teacher or staff during the course of the week.
- You also could consider donating a book in a teacher or staff member's honor, during the Ross book drive (happening now). Visit the Ross book drive link to donate now!
