Ideas for Families to Show Appreciation

Learn about staff member preferences...maybe get some fun ideas!
Check out our Canyon Creek Staff Favorites.

This is a perfect time for students and families to really show their appreciation of our Canyon Creek teachers and staff members.

Our teachers, paras, specialists (PE & Music), learning center, speech, OT & PT, EL, librarians, school nurse, office staff, custodians, counselors, recess teachers, cafeteria staff, and administrators have all worked extremely hard this year to keep students safe, but still have a sense of “normalcy”. Let’s share with them how much we appreciate their dedication to our students.

We have compiled some ideas below for students and families to show appreciation of Canyon Creek staff. If you are so inclined, you can do something different each day - and consider celebrating a variety of staff members.

  • Send special treats like candies, flowers, etc.
  • Write a poem dedicated to a staff member. Share it in written form or read in a video clip to send to staff.
  • Create a list of ways a Canyon Creek staff member has impacted you and share it with them.
  • Tell your teacher something specific you learned from them and what that means to you.
  • Create a short video (alone or with friends or family) celebrating Canyon Creek staff. Share with staff via Schoology?
  • Bring a flower(s) from your garden (or make or draw a flower) to give to a staff member.
  • Draw a picture for a special staff member.
  • An extra step could be to share your appreciation of any staff member with the Principal to make sure he knows how much you value those people!!

Find email addresses for staff in the Canyon Creek School Directory (on school website). Note that there are limitations of size of files that will send to NSD staff, so please keep that in mind.
