As a member of the American Legion Auxiliary, Unit 24, I requested they make an effort to honor the teachers and staff of the Tombstone District during Teacher Appreciation Week. The teachers and staff were surprised with a delightful cake delivered to all three schools with their own school colors and the words “Thank You”. With the help of Applebee’s, Johnson Controls, Ann Evelyn Carl and Alvin J. Anderson, Thomas and Doris Sawner, and Orcutt-Winslow Partnership teachers received gift cards to Applebee’s. The School Board honored the entire staff, on Friday, with a luncheon catered by the Culinary Arts students.
Several teachers thanked me and expressed their appreciation about the honor received during the entire week. One teacher even said, ‘It was the best Teacher Appreciation Week I have had in my over 20 year career.”
A good teacher is like a candle - it consumes itself to light the way for others. ~Author Unknown
While I am on the School Board, I will continue light the candle by showing my appreciation for teachers and staff persons working for the Tombstone USD.
