teaching work of heart3We have an amazing show of gratitude planned for those who teach, coach and mentor our students during Sunday service on May 1st.  If you would like to honor a teacher, coach, mentor or school administrator, please follow the instructions and complete the form below to submit them.

Your Action Steps

  1. SIGN UP YOUR TEACHER: Complete the submission form below (1 form per teacher.)  Be sure that you include contact information so that we can send a reminder to the teacher from the church.  Don’t forget to consider extra-curricular activity leaders, coaches and tutors! If you intend to honor more than one teacher, please use a separate form. DUE APRIL 10TH
  1. INVITE THE TEACHER:  Give a personal invitation to the teacher that you are nominating.  Download WORD or PDF version of the invitation.  Be sure to have your child sign the letter.  We will have printed letters for pick up at the church. Plan to have all invitations distributed by April 8th.
  1. CONFIRM YOUR TEACHER: Get a firm response from your teacher by April 13th.  We need to prepare their gift and create their personalized promotion flyer.
  1. WRITE A PERSONAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: On the sign up form or on an index card, have your child write why they are acknowledging the teacher.  This is the sentiment that will be read as the teacher is being honored.  Give this card to Danna Kiel by April 24th.
