What a way to wrap up Teacher Appreciation Week at Ithaca! Our community truly went above and beyond to make our staff feel valued. We would like to extend a tremendous thank you to Kaylee Hatlan and her wonderful group of thankful parents for treating staff to a delicious breakfast spread Friday morning. Starting the day with that much kindness (and variety of caffeine options!) meant the world to us.
The celebration didn't stop there though, because the Michael and Erin Starks family then provided staff with an incredible Pizza Hut lunch giving us the fuel needed to get us through the final stretch of the day!
Gia Maestri also took the time to treat our staff to perennials to take home and enjoy not just during Teacher Appreciation Week, but for years to come!
Weeks like this remind us all at Ithaca why we do what we do. It's more than a job here, WE ARE FAMILY. To every parent that sent a note, shared a smile, or contributed to any of the meals this week... THANK YOU.
