Organization of Parents and Teachers

We’re excited to announce the theme for this year’s Teachers Appreciation Week:

 F·R·I·E·N·D·S 

 

Each May, schools across the country celebrate their teachers and staff with a full week of appreciation, and Evergreen Academy is no exception. Unlike our monthly one-day staff appreciation events, this is our chance to go all out and create a fun, memorable week for the incredible people who support our kids every day. 

 

This year’s Teachers Appreciation Week is 5/4-5/8, and we need your help!

 

We're sharing a schedule and task list below to help guide planning for the week. Please take a moment to review and let us know if you are able to help with any of the tasks below. None of these roles will cost you anything, as we have a healthy budget to cover every little thing from a napkin to the catered lunch. This is not a complete list of tasks; some tasks have already been taken care of. Every bit of help makes a difference in creating a fun and memorable experience for our teachers.

 

To sign up to volunteer, or to leave a FRIENDS themed ideas/suggestion,

please sign up here: 2026 May Teachers Appreciation Week

or an email to evergreenopt@outlook.com.

​

You can always email Lynn at evergreenopt@outlook.com if you are interested in a specific task or have additional ideas you would like to add, we would love to hear them! 

 

If you have not had a chance to volunteer this year yet, there are still plenty of opportunities to get involved! Whether big or small, we truly appreciate your support.

 

And as a reminder, please keep this a surprise for our teachers 😊

 

Thank you for helping us make this week extra special!​​
