Teachers continue to show up every day from the time children get off the school bus to the time they’re back home safely in their parents’ arms. While there have been many challenges along the way, the teachers of Crossett School District are committed to ensuring that children have the tools they need to reach their full potential.
During Teacher Appreciation Week, consider honoring your child’s teacher for going beyond the call of duty to make a positive impact on your child’s learning and development. From the Zoom calls, text messages and meetings, to the emails, parent-teacher conferences and work they review—teachers touch the hearts of the students in a special way and make a lasting difference in their lives.
