With the end of the school year approaching, teachers are being recognized with specials at retailers and restaurants across the U.S. for Teacher Appreciation Week. Former first lady Eleanor Roosevelt began the effort to create Teacher Appreciation Week and National Teachers Day when she urged Congress in 1953 of the need for a day recognizing teachers, according to School Specialty. National Teacher Day was initially celebrated on March 7, but in 1984 was moved to May. At that time the National Parent Teacher Association began calling the entire first week of May as Teacher Appreciation Week. Homeroom Representatives were tasked with created Teacher Thank You Posters to give to their Homeroom Teachers. They were to then take a group picture and send the pic to Mr. White. Can you tell by these photos how much our teachers are loved?!? Happy Teacher Appreciation Week 2023!!!
