Hello Greenspire Community –
As many of you know, this week is Teacher Appreciation Week. Please take a moment to say thank you to the incredible faculty and staff at The Greenspire School. They have worked tirelessly over the past 13 months to provide our students with the best possible education in a safe learning environment. This meant planning on weekends back in the fall, giving up prep periods to teach remote classes and meet individually with in-person students and wiping down the classroom between each class period to name just a few examples of their commitment. I can say with confidence that this is one of the most dedicated and student-focused teams of educators that I have worked with in my career
Thank You
Elders in our community were pleased that our students reached out to connect with them and offered their thanks for the students who shared their poetry about the elder’s lives.
This is the big thank you poster board that Claire received from them last week!
