We *Heart* Our Teachers and Staff!

The Teacher/Staff Appreciation Luncheon was held today from 11am-1pm. The food, decorations, and conversation were wonderful and we would like to thank all the many, many volunteers who made it possible. Special thanks to our coordinators, Kim Barker and Marilyn Cotter. These ladies spent several weeks planning the luncheon and we are most appreciative! They are the queens of good deals and were able to arrange a nice menu from O'Charleys that included California chicken salad, club sandwiches, and a potato cheddar soup that was awesome. They also got some GREAT door prizes donated including gift cards, Viking Hall tickets, a pedicure, and much more! Special thanks also to Chad Barker, the technical master of the slideshow, and to all who contributed pictures.

Thanks to all the dozens of volunteers who came to sit with the classes so the teachers could enjoy a relaxing time together. Thanks to the many parents who help with set up, serving, clean up, and running to the store at the last minute. Thanks especially to the ladies who stayed after today to get Mr. Dale's library back to its original, pristine condition!

Here are a few pictures of today's festivities. Enjoy!
