JFK
PTO Update – May 5, 2020
Dear JFK Caregivers,
Today’s the day! Not only is today
#GivingTuesday as well as Cinco de Mayo, it’s also National Teacher Day
and we are honoring our amazing team of JFK teachers and staff with a special
photo montage. Please have your students submit a thank you image to the Google
form link that we sent out.
Here are a few ideas they might choose to
include in their pictures:
- Artwork, poems, props and/or personal messages of appreciation to celebrate their teachers (individual and/or Teams)
- Students should feel free to include this hashtag: #ThankJFKTeachers
The deadline for submissions to the photo
montage is today Tuesday, May 5th. Students can only
submit ONE image. They will not be able to access the form more than
once.
Some other ideas that you or your student
may want to consider as an additional way to celebrate their teachers are:
- Send heartfelt letters, cards, and messages of appreciation via email
- Send a teacher a virtual award
- On Thursday, your student can upload a #TBT of their favorite teacher and thank them using #ThankJFKTeachers to social media including our own JFK Middle School PTO. Here is a LINK to our Facebook page.
- Don’t forget: May 4th-8th is National Teacher Appreciation Week.
Thank you so much for participating in
this collaboration to appreciate our wonderful JFK faculty and staff!
Sincerely,
JFK ASK Student Ambassadors, JFK
Administration, and the JFK PTO
