Teacher Appreciation Week

Teacher appreciation is a heartfelt acknowledgment of the dedication, patience, and passion educators bring to shaping young minds. Teachers go beyond just delivering lessons—they inspire curiosity, build confidence, and often serve as mentors and role models. Their influence extends far beyond the classroom, leaving lasting impressions that can change the course of a student’s life.
Taking the time to recognize their hard work and commitment reminds them how valued and impactful they truly are. Whether through kind words, a thoughtful note, or a simple thank you, showing appreciation can mean the world to those who devote themselves to helping others learn and grow.

STEAM Night is an exciting, hands-on event designed to ignite students’ curiosity and enthusiasm for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math. Families are invited to explore a variety of interactive stations where students can build, experiment, and create alongside their peers and teachers. It's a fantastic opportunity for students to grow their interests of innovation and discovery!
