Teacher Appreciation Week is May 4th-8th this year. Although we have been away from school for a few weeks, we still want to show our teachers how much we appreciate all their hard work during the school year and during this distance learning adventure we've all been on. Let’s show our Conval Teachers and Staff , Coaches , Bus drives and Food Service Workers how much we appreciate them. The teachers and staff would like to see the students doing their school work from home, or making homemade signs and notes to say thank you. We can be creative and send emails, photos and videos to teachers, staff and principals and hold up signs for bus drivers and food service workers during teacher appreciation week. If for some reason you cannot get a picture or video an email note would also go a long way. We all miss school, our classmates and teachers and they all miss us too! A small act of kindness goes a long way. Stay well, stay safe.

Introduction: What do you do after 2? Be sure to watch till the end of the video playlist to see how you can submit your own video.
Conclusion:
Expectations for video submissions:
First, Start your video by saying “After 2 I…”
“Be safe. Show your PUMA PRIDE. Remember Social Distancing!” Make sure that you are practicing safe activities while filming your video. Examples: wear helmets and any other safety gear for your activity. Show your Puma Pride and practice social distancing.
“Be appropriate. The SMS Community is watching”Your video may be seen by teachers, parents, and students.
“Keep it short. 5-10 seconds only!”Submissions should be 5-10 seconds long.
Though all staff and faculty are at home now, the staff and faculty are still able to connect to keep the education of students moving forward. Some have even gained new assistants!
