Teacher Appreciation Week

We are celebrating teacher appreciation week at Sears School April 27-May 1. The JSSPVA is providing special treats for the teachers and staff each day to express our gratitude for their commitment to educating our children with excellence and care.

Please help us continue the tradition of celebrating our teachers with flowers on Wednesday, April 29. Children are encouraged to bring a flower for each of their teachers that morning!

With your help, we will be selling flowers that morning in front of the school ($1 per stem). Please contact Melissa Ross (mahross22@gmail.com) if you are able to help with the flower sale before school on April 29th.

April editions of the JSSPVA Newsletter will be sent the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of the month due to Spring Break.
