Despite California ranking near the bottom in the nation for public education; there are good teachers out there in Del Norte County that love their jobs and inspire our children.
What can you do to show your appreciation? Here are some ideas:
Drop off crayons, pencils, colored construction paper or other school supplies
Write a letter of appreciation
Give a gift like a coffee mug
Gift cards to stores around the area
Donate funds to their classroom
Bring them some baked goods
A good book or two
Ticket or two to a movie
A personalized tote bag
Donation of your time in the classroom
Not to rain on anyone’s appreciation day, but those teachers that are worthy of appreciation might look within their ranks and clean up the current mess that is called euphemistically called “education” rather than indoctrination.
