Staff Appreciation Week Reminder!

Salem Staff Appreciation Week - May 7th-11th

The SPTO would like to invite you to celebrate our wonderful, dedicated staff at

Salem by participating in some fun activities we have planned for ne week!

First of all, we are planning to offer some breakfast treats during one of the

teachers' early morning staff meetings this week. Second, we are catering in a

special lunch from the Olive Garden for all staff at Salem on Thursday, May 10th.

We are asking families to please donate $5 per family to help with the expense

of these two meals. This special staff lunch is the one lunch all school year that

teachers are able to eat with other staff members and be away from the noisy

lunchroom. It is a simple thing we can treat them to and it is always greatly

appreciated by the staff members! Finally, we encourage you to surprise your

child’s teacher or any other Salem staff with little treats or gifts throughout the

week.

Our theme for this school year is “Fix Your Eyes on Jesus”, so we will be

spelling out “JESUS” throughout the week. For example:

Monday: bring something that starts with “J” (juice, jokes, Jimmy Johns, etc.)

Tuesday: bring something that starts with “E” (Extra gum, Emerald Nuts, etc.)

Wednesday: bring something that starts with “S” (Snickers, Subway, etc.)

Thursday: bring something that starts with “U” (unique artwork, unusual bakery
items, etc.)

Friday: bring something that starts with “S” (soy candle, scented lotion, etc.)

Have fun and use your creativity to surprise your teacher and show them how
much they are appreciated!
