This week the Tipton PTO is celebrating "Teacher Appreciation Week" by treating the teachers and faculty of Tipton Public Schools to meals and snacks. (In case you're wondering, we usually celebrate it a week later than it's "officially" scheduled due to conflicts.)
(Crayon crowns for the elementary teachers & staff)
Although our PTO is primarily an elementary organization, our school is small and everyone helps everyone, so all of the schools gets this special treat.
The only difference in the special celebration is that the elementary workroom gets decorated for the week or few days. This year's theme is: You Color Our World!. It's a school/crayon theme and most of the items were purchased online from Oriental Trading.
Because I like to decorate and rent/loan some of my decorations, I buy them myself. It's not with PTO money. I say that not to brag, but so everyone knows. I certainly don't think it's right for anyone to help fund my "obsession" with decorating! It's my thing so I take care of it. The only one that I usually get approval from is my husband! He's so good to let me rent a storage building for my many, many totes! He was also kind enough to help me decorate at the school late last night and go early to get donuts for the teachers for this mornings' breakfast! Thanks, Joe :).
On this GRATITUESDAY, I am grateful for our teachers and all of the staff of our school. They work hard to teach our children what they need to know to be successful in life, but the also care about each of them as individuals. Thank you for what you do for our children and for all of us!

very cute! I know they appreciate the attention!
Ho fun and what a great PTO person you are!!
As a former teacher, I LOVE this! The decorations are so cute, and it means a lot to teachers when parents put so much effort into things like this just to say thank you. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, everyone!
