This past Friday St. John's Lutheran observed Teacher Appreciation Day. (In conjunction, we also observed Book Character Day, which made the day rather crazy.) I was blessed to receive many "Thank you, Teacher" greetings and doubly blessed to receive a few gifts. One gift was even given to me by a 3rd grade parent, though I am the 2nd grade teacher! Such kindness!
In chapel, the chairman of the school board presented us each with a certificate in "recognition of appreciation." It was a very formal presentation by him, met by raucous cheering from the student body. At lunch, the administration had found parents to come and supervise our children for an hour while the teachers came up to the extra classroom to eat a nice lunch. It was all very lovely, a nice break from routine and a pleasant opportunity for the students to tell their teachers thank you.
