It is Teacher Appreciation Week!!! This national holiday dates back in 1953 when First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt persuaded Congress that there should be a holiday set aside to acknowledge our teachers. The holiday takes place during the first full week of May to celebrate and recognize our teacher/educators’ hard work. Lets hear what some of the students around the school have to say about our teachers.
“I appreciate how caring and understanding they are. Also how they want to keep me on track in terms of grades and effort, especially Mr. Cadet.”
Maleah S., Freshman
“I appreciate my Avid teacher, Mr. Lee for reaching out to me when my grades starts to drop, he will email me and ask if I need any help.”
