The hospitality team strives to support and delight teachers and staff throughout the year on behalf of the student and family community. This sunshine committee hosts the back-to-school welcome coffee event, coordinates monthly staff appreciation lunches, leads staff appreciation week, and stocks the staff snack and beverage bar throughout the year.
Staff Snack & Beverage Bar
Families are welcome to donate store-bought snacks and beverages for our hard-working staff to enjoy. Simply drop them off at the Front Office with Lyn and the Hospitality Team will ensure they're stocked in the Staff Lounge.
Favorites include individually-wrapped chips, popcorn, trail mix, and sweets. The staff also enjoy Major Dickenson's Keurig coffee pods as well as Tea K-Cups.

Monthly Staff Appreciation Lunches
The PTO sponsors monthly appreciation lunches for all staff to enjoy. It's a big treat that shows our collective appreciation for all they do! The staff loves the opportunity to nosh on great food while connecting with each other over a meal. Throughout the year, parents from each grade level are invited to contribute with homemade treats, drinks, or store-bought snacks to keep in the staff lounge. Class Coordinators will distribute sign-ups in advance of grade-level sponsored lunches with additional details.
