THANK-A-TEACHER
Say "Happy Holidays" and show your appreciation
by Thank-A-Teacher Appeal!

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! Each educator honored by a donation receives a personalized letter from the Education Foundation thanking them for their work, and includes the name of your child. Last December, over 160 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.

To participate, complete and return the backpack flyer or e-flyer that was distributed on Friday, December 5, or download the form. Any questions, please contact Christine Coffman at cddcoffman@comcast.net.

Thank-A-Teacher donations will be accepted until December 15.
