Monday, May 6th

• Audubon teachers and staff are absolutely amazing!  We want to make sure that EVERYONE is included in the gestures of appreciation. 
• Door poster(s) are created and hung on each teacher or staff member’s door or common areas(s) before school on Monday, the 6th.  Please delegate the making and hanging of the posters as needed. Other classroom parents are happy to help. Classrooms that have 2 room reps have likely been assigned a support staff member.  Audubon’s support staff does not always have an assigned classroom or office so please feel free to reach out for suggested locations to hang their posters. Pinterest has great Target related/themed door posters for inspiration. Additionally, the Audubon PTA Facebook page has photos posted from previous years, simply type “staff appreciation” in the search and the photos will come up.
• White 18x24 poster boards will be available for pick up in the library from Ms. Cynthia, our librarian during school hours (beginning next week). 
• The main entrance outside of the office, as well as the Crane gate will open by 7:30 am on the 6th. Please use only blue painter’s tape to hang the posters. The office will be open and will lend out the rolls of blue tape. Please return the rolls back to the office as nearly 40 other door posters need to be hung as well.
• STUDENTS: Bring a snack or sweet treat for your teacher to stock their personal Target Cafe.
• LUNCH: Japanese buffet

Tuesday, May 7th

• Employee of the Month!  Time for some team member recognition: We think you are awesome!  Write a special note and/or staff to say thank you! 
• LUNCH: Pasha

Wednesday, May 8th

• Gift cards from families (for classroom teachers only, not necessary for support staff) to be used towards classroom supplies.  Teachers often reach into their own pocket to provide for the needs of the classroom.  The gift cards that come on this day help subsidize some of these costs. There is no need to collect money for this particular gift card, as it is whatever each family chooses to contribute.  To make it easier on the teacher and the families, you may want to  discuss with the teacher where he/she normally purchases the class supplies (Amazon, Target, etc.).  We surveyed the teachers and some responded with specific needs. 

Trips to the store are not necessary as e-gift cards are an option and can be sent to the teacher’s email address. 

OR PERFORM A RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS FOR YOUR TEACHER and/or STAFF MEMBER

• BREAKFAST: Bagels & cream cheeses and pastries (Noah’s and Panera)

Thursday, May 9th

• Stock up on Spring: Bring your teacher/staff member a flower, veggies from your garden, seeds or draw them a picture!
• LUNCH: Guatamalan Food

Friday, May 10th

• A class gift card is given to the teacher (and support staff, if assigned) for their personal use.
