🌟And That’s A Wrap!🌟
That’s a wrap on our Teacher Appreciation Week… and brace yourselves for a long but FUN recap! 🎉📼✨
Last Friday our teachers were treated to a totally TGIF-inspired taco bar lunch from Chuy’s 🌮💿 Thank you to our amazing family sponsors who helped make lunch happen:
🧀 Appetizers sponsored by the Perez Family
🍰 Desserts sponsored by the Makara Family
Our teachers and staff also showed UP in their best 90s gear, so make sure to scroll through the photos because the outfits absolutely deserve their moment 😂🕶️
Monday we kept the nostalgia rolling with our Ice Ice Baby ice cream bar featuring Bruster’s ice cream 🍦❄️ Huge thanks to our sponsors:
🍨 The McPhee family for sponsoring the ice cream
🍭 The Mease family for sponsoring all the toppings!
Tuesday was All That and a Bag of Chips snack cart day 🛼🧃🍿 A huge thank you to all of our snack cart donors and to the Sumner family for sponsoring the cart!
And finally, today we wrapped things up by covering recess for teachers and staff ☀️ While an extra-long fire drill created a little unexpected plot twist 😅, the teachers were so appreciative of the volunteers who jumped in to help make it happen. Thank you to our recess volunteers for wrangling kids, bandaiding scrapes, playing games, and keeping everyone company.
**We have more special shoutouts on our private Elementary Chameleon Families page.**
Teacher Appreciation Week is always fun, exhausting, chaotic, rewarding, and FULL of teamwork, and this week was no exception. Thank you to every family who donated, volunteered, sponsored, delivered, scooped, organized, carried, cleaned, decorated, or simply cheered us on along the way.
Most importantly, THANK YOU to our incredible Carpenter teachers and staff for everything you do for our kids every single day. We hope you felt celebrated, appreciated, and maybe just a little nostalgic this week 💜📼✨
