Do you struggle every year to find the perfect Thank You gift for your child's teacher? The Thank-A-Teacher program is a great way to say "Happy Holidays" to your child's teacher AND tell them that you appreciate the work that they do! Last December, over 150 teachers received Thank-A-Teacher acknowledgements from families. It's a popular program that recognizes teachers for their dedication, and helps to support their efforts to give students the tools and motivation to become lifelong learners. All proceeds fund Hopkinton Education Foundation grants in the schools.
