Teacher Grams…..Get your Teacher Grams!!!

This is your chance to give a tired teacher, administrator, or other faculty member a real boost by writing a teacher gram to say thanks or to compliment them for something they did that was helpful to you over the school year. You all can’t imagine how much your teachers love and appreciate these notes. They are precious gifts.

Most of your teachers have the blank teacher grams in their classrooms or you can pick them up in E 116 (Mrs. Ottis’ room). There are envelopes hanging in the halls throughout the school to put the finished ones in, or you can deliver them to Mrs. Ottis’ room. Best of all, they’re free!
