Letters of Appreciation
Dear ARMS Families,
As we head into the holiday season, we want to suggest a
simple way that you can show your appreciation for the wonderful team of people
who support our kids at ARMS. We believe
that one of the nicest gifts you can give is the gift of thanks.
It is always nice to receive a letter that expresses
appreciation for something you’ve done, and it feels good to show your
appreciation to others. You’ve probably
heard your children say something, or noticed positive growth, that makes you
feel appreciative toward a specific teacher, group of teachers or other support
and custodial staff. We would like to
encourage the ARMS community to help ensure that this gratitude is expressed
directly to teachers and staff.
The PGO has a number of activities through which we collaborate
with teachers and staff members. During
this holiday season (and throughout the year), we encourage community members
to write short thank you notes to teachers or staff members, whether an email
or a hand-written note, to show your appreciation and gratitude for all that
they do for our kids. Surveys of
educators throughout the country have shown that it is of extraordinary value
to them to receive such notes. So while
you are working through your holiday card list this year, please take a moment
to tell the ARMS teachers and staff that their important work is valued by us
all.
