Staff Appreciation

Dear Wilshire Park Families,

It is once again time to show our appreciation for our wonderful Wilshire Park staff. Please consider participating in one of the following ways.

First, as a way to thank staff members for all of their hard work, we ask that families write personal notes of thanks to teachers and staff members. You may do this at home or you will have the opportunity to do this at the Ice Cream Social on Tuesday, May 7 (6-7 pm) in Mrs. Tronsgard’s room (#118 – across from Multi-Purpose Room). The note could be a picture made by your student, a note of thanks from you as a parent or other creative note of thanks. Your student's teacher, a favorite specialist, and a custodian or office member would all love this! Please have your notes handed in by Wednesday May 8th to the school office. We plan to gather the thank you notes, and package them to give to each staff member on Friday, May 10th.

Secondly, instead of the big appreciation breakfast offered in the past, the committee decided to try something different by giving the staff several smaller treats throughout the week. If you would like to contribute food, you can sign up to donate online , or indicate your first and second choice on the slip here and have your child turn it in to the office. We ask that you bring your food on either disposable plates/platters or label them with your name and pick them up in the staff lounge the following day. Please deliver food items to the staff lounge by 7:30 am on the day you are scheduled.

We appreciate you considering this volunteer opportunity. If you have any questions, please contact Jennifer at 612-554-8519 or Keri at 612-789-1370.

Gratefully,
The Staff Appreciation Committee
Keri Skinner, Erin Gunselman-Burns, Jennifer Rosha, and Brenda Neimi
