A Thank You From Our Teachers

touched we are by the expressions of gratitude and support sent to us during Teacher
Appreciation Week. Words cannot express the satisfaction we all feel from the affirmations
we received. Thank you for making the week special and memorable for each and every one of
us. We also want to shout about our excitement over this year's auction. Every year it has
gotten better and better. We appreciate all the years of hard work that have made the
